I think it would be great but we need to be objective. Therefore they should be submitted and agreed by a panel or by competition

Whatever, they need to be out there.

I will ask mods for their advice. Perhaps a new thread for poems chosen - although the poet would have to agree for their poem to be entered.
Would it be possible to ask those agreeable to put their name on a list
Or should poets put forward one or two poems for inclusion.

Why do things which appear so easy to start with turn out to be so complicated?

still willing to go ahead though!

Am right behind you ( well a couple of steps ).

since most poems are lost in the misty maze of the forum, I think it necessary for the poet to identify and repost up to say a max of five works. other works could be nominated by other forum members.
do we have some idea of how many poems? (i suggest 100 is a good number) if the number is less than the nominated then no selection is needed. if more - the forum has no mechanism for votes. i suggest someone (preferably Ezinda) accept email votes.
just a few suggestions.
general question - are we looking for inclusivity or quality ?

ps i would love anyway to see a thread of our own favourite babies

Ezinda is now on the case and has passed our ideas/links to this thread to the PUBLICATIONS department.
It will be Monday before she can tell us anything.
Meanwhile, why not have a browse through Creative Corner and jot down a few that you like. If they are yours, I expect you could repost them. Is there any harm in mentioning particular ones written by other poets eg.

eg. Grey day by Grey

Is this making any sense?

heaps of sense

bogman - did you get my email? james galway it isnt.

Bogman _ I also sent you a pm or 3. But I am not confident that they got through to you. 'puter kept telling me when I pressed send "page cannot be displayed" I do not understand this newfangled technologly, I just hope for the best

AB - i am afraid it is puk's old-fashioned technology! hope your partner has got a good tune up his sleeve because B's poem deserves the best.
cheers
