I just got a poem published. My first ever recognition. Does anyone else out there like to read or write poetry or should I just skulk back to the 1800's?

    @quirky. No link I just made some random submissions months ago and one came through! I've always written strictly for my own eyes and enjoyment. Not sure why inspired me to send them out.
