“This is Poetic Bloomings — a place where poetry grows and flourishes in a supportive and encouraging environment.”
This was our mission … our mutual vision.
Week-upon-week-upon-week, you grace us with your carefully penned words. You generously hearten and inspire. In short, you gift us with your gift. We recognize that there are many venues where your words could be spent. We are deeply thankful to each of you for choosing to bloom in our humble “garden.”
Very sincerely,
Walt and Marie Elena

But it is for us to thank you, for providing us with this extremely congenial garden, and giving us the space for our poetry to breathe.
…..but, I wish you would be a little more careful with your tenses. “Was” suggests action completed.
Yep, it “was” our mission, and is now being realized … thanks to all of you! 😉

“…words could be spent…”: so deeply Beautiful and enriching; how much more could we ask for?
Congrats on your garden! I think I only submitted one, but I have enjoyed following it!
Happy December holidays with your families!
Your website has inspired me. Filled with beautiful words by talented poets, and challenges for form and topic, I have loved participating in this wonderful site. THanks so much, Marie Elena and Walt for giving me this window of joy!
Sharing garden fare with friends is a wonderful thing. Tilling the garden as you and Walt do makes it all possible. Kudos, flowers, and tomatoes to you both!
I love being a flower in your garden; thanks for planting me.
Thank YOU, Marie and Walt. Such a wonderful place to read, write, and comment. Your garden is filled with love, joy, creativity, and positive energy which does nothing but encourage and generate more of the same. 🙂
