Arthur Vaso’s GUEST POET of the week, Charmaine Chircop

Blog Posted:2/6/2016 12:27:00 AM

It is my immense pleasure to announce this weeks Poet of the Week, Charmaine Chircop. It was a most difficult task selecting poems, so I also must graciously thank Tim Smith for assisting in this endeavor. I must clarify difficult in that amongst all her beautiful poems was hard to pick favorites as they are all so nice! I hope this inspires people to read more of her works!

Well done, Arthur! You have made a wise and fitting choice, not because Charmaine is Maltese, like me, but because she truly merits it. I love her poetry, her gentle loving character, her honesty and her diplomatic abilities. ~ Congratulations for this bio and all you stand for Charm! Prosit ~ paul
