Christmas Poem - removed for publishing

[FranktheFrank]

Poem will be published in January 2024

All published poems will be reposted after publication
on the Writer's Block where I served my writing apprenticeship
being tutored by Bernie Henrie and Bob Bradshaw who gave
unstinting service. My thanks also to other poets who have helped.

My thanks also to both Michaels: Neff and MV who provided
the platform and administered it.

I think this is possibly the best critiquing forum on the Internet.

Since starting my apprenticeship (informal) I have won nine placings
in the WebDelSol IBPC, been pubished for one haiku and been published
four times by Autumn Sky Poetry Daily
and now will be published three times by wiseowl.art.

Not quite as good as the masters Bob and Bernie, but I am well satisfied.
I now have enough credit to publish a poetry chapbook.

[BobBradshaw]

I would love to read a chapbook of yours, Ieuan.

[FranktheFrank]

I am hoping to complete one next year Bob.
A mix, some from here, some from the other forum, and some from poems
that I wrote before I joined here and published myself for friends.
I may ask you and Michael to write a preface.

Sounds good
