222 gps per review. Newer poems needing reviews. Less than 100 views.
** Image ID #1150223 Unavailable **

Newer poems (or poems renewed!) needed a folder of their own to unclutter this closet! And 222 gps is your reward for helping me with cleaning it out.

After appearing in my blog "L'aura del Campo" Open in new Window. [13+] this is where my poems come to be read, reviewed and rated. These are the waters in which they sink or swim. You, the reader help decide their future. I am merely the midwife that gave them birth.

Newest (August 15 short poems from recent blog entries):

"August" Open in new Window.
"What the waves knew" Open in new Window.
"Sentinel" Open in new Window.

Still no comments:

"Drugs sold here" Open in new Window.
"Sorting task" Open in new Window.

Another three poems that have been read the least to date:
"Canvas of a May day" Open in new Window.
"Flood of '93" Open in new Window.
"Paradise" Open in new Window.

Poems that have been reviewed at least 10 times and will be moved elsewhere (and gps reduced), usually when they have received 15 reviews and 50 views (due to the vagaries of the WDC system, these are still here, alas):
"Palette of Pastels" Open in new Window.
"Mauve Mavis" Open in new Window.
"Alps" Open in new Window. (12/81)
"Susan-of-the-waves" Open in new Window. (12/46)
"Violets" Open in new Window. (13/49)
"Wheat penny" Open in new Window.
"Song of an Age" Open in new Window.
"Love-lies-bleeding" Open in new Window.
"Flight of the unwanted son" Open in new Window. (12/58)

The one that readers seem to enjoy the most if you have time for only one:
"Wheat penny" Open in new Window. (12/84)

Thank-you to all my readers. I usually won't edit or respond to reviews until a poem gets ten reviews. Then I get to mull over whether to burn or bury them! *Smirk*
