I've been seeing events like this for a long time and I've yet to see a poetry giveaway, however art freebies are everywhere, so I figured I'll try and see how popular a poetry giveaway thread is ^^.

If you want examples there is a link Here for you to click on.

So chat, hang out, have fun and maybe get some free poetry =3

White List - Anyone not on the black list.

Gray List - Only obtainable voluntarily. (See Rules)

Black List - People on my Blacklist will not receive poems.

Freebie/Giveaway: Going to give poetry to posters who post (Poems will be given out randomly and will be PM'd to the receiver).

A user must post at least 5 times before they can qualify

Personal reminder - Users who have received a poem:

People currently eligible (in white - Personal note):


If poem is pending at end of event, I'll still PM them once they are finished.

Rules for obtaining a poetry freebie:
- Do not ask for one.
- Do not complain if you do not receive one. (May result in blacklisting if it continues)
- Do not ask me to remove a blacklisted member. (Blacklisting is permanent unless I decide otherwise)
- A user must post at least 5 times before they can be able to get a freebie poem, however doesn't automatically guarantee you will get one.
- If you do not like or want poetry for any reason, you may request to be put on the Gray list for volunteered non-receival. (This, you may request to be removed/added to via PM)

<Rules may be changed or added to at any time>

Note: My poems are normally naturally rather short, however I hope those who receive one like them.

Poems will be given out as I'm inspired to write them. (All poems are from scratch)

Hello there! How is this event going for you so far? :)

The Wandering Poet 08-09-2009 06:56 PM

Hello~ ^_^ Doing well I believe, =3 yay for a poster~
Hoping this thread does well.

Kumiegirl331 08-09-2009 06:58 PM

I think it will :) Poetry is awesome I love it! I write some myself, but I only write like once in a blue moon lol

The Wandering Poet 08-09-2009 07:01 PM

Same, I used to write a lot though, like 2-3 a day, though now it's once a week or so... hoping this thread helps me get inspired again =)

I've always seen art freebies and about an hour ago I thought "Why never poetry?" XD

Kumiegirl331 08-09-2009 07:03 PM

Lol yeah, I think it's a great idea. All the art giveaways can make your head spin. I think this is the only poetry giveaway that I've ever seen!

The Wandering Poet 08-09-2009 07:06 PM

lol same... I've always seen art for most of them... never poetry ^_^ though the poetry forum here never seems to move much...

sadrain 08-09-2009 07:07 PM

You... give away poems? owo That's so coool. O.O

Kumiegirl331 08-09-2009 07:07 PM

Thats a shame, maybe I can bring some of my friends over from allpoetry.com and they can get the forum moving :P

The Wandering Poet 08-09-2009 07:09 PM

Ooh... allpoetry... ^^" joined but never posted a long time ago lol

@ sad - =3 thankies, and yeah, when I get inspired I like writing poems for people ^_^

Kumiegirl331 08-09-2009 07:13 PM

@Kaze-bear: I love allpoetry, I have tons of friends on there and some of them write 2-3 poems a DAY...every day too. I don't see how they do it, but they are usually pretty good.

The Wandering Poet 08-09-2009 07:16 PM

Hmm... some people are talented I guess... ^^" for me it was only daily because I was in 2 poetry classes a while back. I wrote a lot of poems while half listening to lectures ^^"

The last poetry forum I joined discouraged me as a mod wouldn't unlock my thread... :(

Kumiegirl331 08-09-2009 07:18 PM

@Kaze-bear: Ah yeah I do that sometimes, mostly I just doodle during lectures though

The Wandering Poet 08-09-2009 07:21 PM

I would doodle, but my art skills are terrible XD That banner I made could be a lot better... *dreams of having art skills*

Kumiegirl331 08-09-2009 07:23 PM

I love to draw and everybody tells me I'm great, but I guess an artist is always harder on themselves than everybody else hu? I'm the same way when it comes to my poetry :P

dianakitsune 08-09-2009 07:26 PM

It's probably just a coincidence, but I'm curious, did your title: A Starless Sky by chance come the song Diva by Origa? (only noticed that cause I'm listening to the song right now lol)

Oh and I like poetry ^^

The Wandering Poet 08-09-2009 07:27 PM

Yup... same with both... I think I totally and completely suck at poetry... but everyone tells me otherwise... ^^" yet to get someone to actually insult one >.<

@ dianakitsune - Nope ^^" I just liked how it sounded... came from a poem I write a while back =3 Never heard the song before actually ^^"""

sadrain 08-09-2009 07:38 PM

I think it's very awesome, Bear. I do write poetry as well but it's rare and inspired by my life, not just people around me. Certianly not people that I have talked only a bit with. XD

nagihiko48 08-09-2009 07:41 PM

wattup.

The Wandering Poet 08-09-2009 07:42 PM

Well my poems are just random scribbles. They never get finished but 2 so far out of a few hundred ^^"

@ nagihiko48 - Hello~ You're welcome to stay as long as you wish =)

dianakitsune 08-09-2009 07:53 PM

@Kaze-bear: haha, I thought it was just a coincidence :P The song really only repeats 4 phrases over and over again, but it's still cool sounding

Hello everyone :)
