Site Format

After one week from getting the site online, I want to welcome any new users who may found there way here so far.

Just wanted to update everyone on how the site will be run.  I plan on posting one poem each day, including weekends.  I also plan on posting one long poem each week (20+ lines).  Poetry that I write will be posted as it is made available (around once per week).

Also if anyone would like their poetry made availble on here, please email me: james AT independentyouth.com

I would love to either give you posting privledges, or give credit to emails that I get.  I also could set someone up another blog (in between the Home page & About page that would only show your posts).

Welcome to the Daily Stanza

Welcome to the Daily Stanza.  I hope to find or create one or two poems each day to share with the world.  It may be a haiku, free verse, song lyric, spoken word, or some other form of poetry.  I will try to showcase a variety of poetry with different moods, styles, tones, and levels.

I will try to include some works by famous poets (with permission or by out of copyright) from the more recent Illusionists, Contemporaries, along with material from older poets.   I also will throw in peotic verse, quotes, and inspiration from leaders, musicians, and more from time to time.

Enjoy!
