Notes About The Poem


Dear poets not all wanted the book and some didn't respond to email. But if you did and I have your info your book is coming asap. The poets who live outside of USA it takes longer and I must fill out a customs form which is no problem. The holidays slowed the process but please know you aren't forgotten. 

Please don't send me donations but forward here. Thank you.

Where Is My Book? What Makes Me Smile Contest

Wondering where is your book
Eager to have it and take a look
I’m sending them out in groups
Wanted to keep you in the loop

Also if you’re not in USA
Takes longer to mail your way
Don’t worry your info is secure
I’ll not share it be so assured

I want to say about a certain dear
Without naming names on here
That your donation will be sent
To the cancer center every cent

For those of you wondering where
Is my book please don’t despair
And if you feel you must still give
Send to a cancer center dear

I’ll include the address of one here
Or chose your own as most sincere
Your poetry brought joy and is great
A smile so proud sits upon my face!

Thank you poets who contributed!
