Lovers Of Poetry: Let's Help A Fellow Blogger

One of the blogs that the Oracle follows is Castles Made Of Sand by Keair Snyder. Keair is the hardworking and talented young author of a book also entitled Castles Made Of Sand - available on Amazon.com.


Keair is contemplating next publishing a book of poetry and is seeking the advice of poetry lovers the world over. Keair has catagorized her poems but is stressing a bit as to how to arrange them for a book.

Wrote Keair, "...for those of you who are into poetry, do you prefer a book of poems that all have one running theme or do you like it better when you're not sure what subject will appear in rhyme next? Do you think the best poetry books are short or longer? Does any of this even matter to you or do you only look at the quality of poems?"

Instead of bemoaning the nightmarish thought of Rick (with a P) Perry, R-Texas Taliban, coming to Florida - for anything, I thought it would be a great change of pace to give this young writer a helping hand. For Oracle readers who are poetry aficianados, how would you respond to Keair's concerns about a book of poetry?

You may post your comments below and I will forward them to Keair, or you may respond on her web site listed at the top of this article. Let's help her out. It's hard enough just to get anything published. Your support would put a big "Happy Face" on her day.

  1. Thanks for the information Jon. I went to her site and will post my comments to her. It is refreshing to take a break from politics. It can be very frustrating when dealing with the idiots that run the country and state. That is part of the reasoning behind my sports blog and my father, thinks he, knows best blog. Each day you give something new and different in your posts. Keep up the great job. I look forward to reading SOG Oracle.
