Bri Edwards July Poems

Readers:

This is NOT a single poem written by me. It is a collection of poems, mostly by other poets. I have been putting together usually-monthly-showcases for years. This years' problems on P-H (which continue to a lesser degree) have caused me to miss several months and now I MAY have two smaller (than usual) showcases in the same month, as I did last month in June.

Bri Edwards' July 2022 Showcase Of A Few Poems I Have Enjoyed On P-H


After struggling a bit to collecf what poems are shown below,
...

Bri's intro poem:

I HAD an introduction poem. I just had it yesterday.
But NOW I no longer see one! The Devil's in my way! !
...

When I finally hit 'submit'...or is it 'publish', P-H sent me this note, under a large RED Dot (with a WHITE 'x' inside the dot) :

'Please enter at up 150 characters in the 'Title' field.'
...

That five-word sentence DOES "say it all", almost as well as "He dropped the ball".
That SECOND sentence means "He did fail",
AND from that FIRST sentence I'd likely quail.
...

I’ve started a 'showcase' on my PoemHunter site,
which is NOT a contest; it’s no arena for a fight,
but instead a place where once a month I shall post..
a poem* from you, a PH member, which you’d like read most.

July 2018 Showcase Of Poems... [ Found On P H By Bri! ]

I just realized how the end of June has snuck up ….on me!
It's time again for a "showcase", which to YOU I give out free! !
So from my desk inkwell I pull out my Big Red Goose Quill …..
to compose a poem; I try to entertain you all.I hope this will.
...

June's 'All-Female Showcase' is done; it's even had some readers!
Now my ‘job' begins: to find ‘Poems-as-Good by Males'. No cheaters.. …….are allowed!
As best as Bri can tell, the 'females' are females and 'males' are all males.
But, online, who can tell for sure? Relying on PH names OR ‘pics' sometimes fails,
...

‘Dear' poets, Male and Female and ‘In-Between',
The monitor-of-PC (by me) is still quite clearly seen,
But, alas, my mate sees fit to keep me from it ….a lot,
Because my eye(s) bother(s) me & there're just 2 I've got!
...

#2: July's Title! 'Where Did I Put It! '

This is a challenge....
for PH members,
...

Last night I spent at least
twenty minutes of my life,
secluded then, from my wife,
reading the entries,1,2,3,
