335159 Okay, we have enough poems now to last us well into summer 2010, so I'm closing the list. Any longer and it'll become unmanageable to set up.

Thanks to everyone who contributed. It's going to be a great list.

335159 Oh good, Philip. Your contributions last time were great.

555726 I'll try to send something soon, Ruth. First I have to check what I've sent you in the past and what has been posted on the Poetry board since I first joined CR in October 2007.

335159 HELP, HELP! We're nearing the end of our present list. We need bushels of new poems and I've only received a few.

If the idea of typing a whole poem fazes you, here are a couple of websites where you can find hundreds ofpoems and copy and paste to your hearts delight.

http://poets.org/
http://www.poetryfoundation.org/

Got a poem you like from someplace else? Type the first line into Google and see if you can find it online to copy and paste.

Avalanche me with poetry!

335159 We're nearing the end of our present list. Lets feed the Poetry Bug again.

I said nominations, but in fact there's no voting. Every poem I get will be listed, unless it's one we've done in the fairly recent past.

What I need is for you to send me poems, one or several. I need the whole poem, not just the title. And if it's a poet who's fairly obscure, I'd like a little biographical material.

Send the stuff to me as a Goodreads message by going to my profile and clicking "send message."

I can't wait to see what turns up.
