A Tribute To Favorites ...GUYS Part 1

**UPDATE***
I am taking out the limit of entries....DOn't go completely crazy LOL But if you know a few of these guys you would like to honor, pen away!!!!



I want to honor all of my favorite poets on AP.

I thought a good way would be to have a series of contests so that all of my favorites will be included So I will have 4 contests in all.

This is Part 1 of my favorite Guys
These Guys are not only favorite poets of mine, but also dear friends.
Some I have known longer than others, but all are very dear to me...
SO YOU BETTER BE NICE!!!!!

If you know them, that is wonderful.
If you don't, I have included their links so that you can read their pages and beautiful poetry, and get inspired

Rules:

BE NICE or you will be DQ and in this contest, I am very serious about that. I am having an open contest, but be rude to these guys or me, and you are out
NO BASHING OF ANYONE! If you cannot say something nice, say nothing at all please. No sad, angry or depressing poems. This isn't the place.
no profanity or erotica..PERIOD! No cutting/self harm
Please use spell check...It's a must...
any style/form rhyming or non, nothing forced please.

Now please honor these wonderful guys and make us proud!!!
You can enter up to 3 times, and you guys can enter as well
Here is my first group of favorite guys!

    First... I have to say I hate this background. Hurts me poor little eyes, it does. That bright line going down the middle! Save me, save me!

    Some of the links aren't working, either.

    I think, if my mind slows down a bit... I'll be getting one of these in here. I just may! You never know about me. I have so many contests I'm trying to write for... and so little time to do so.

    It's really sweet of you to hold these tribute contests. So darling of you to show your appreciation to friends and fellow poets.

    Geez what an interesting little conversation you all have going here. LOL. I do not really know anyone here, and well, I like to make my poetry kind of personal, but I do just love this idea and I was so proud to have been included in the other one. I hope you get some amazing writes here, as I am almost positive(because they are your favs) that these poets are just wonderful. I know one name kinda well, but I only know his work, not really him!! Anyhow. Good luck with the judging. I will be sure to check in from time to time to see what you have here!!

    Love

    It would be difficult for me to express how moved I was to see my name mixed in, with such exceptional poets. I am blessed to have read your words and to know you as a great woman. I thank you for honering my words on AP. Your Friend, Rick
