Overwhelmed by your
enormous response,
with thudding heart
and sense that once
again I've been
awarded
a demonstration
that virtue brings
more than its own reward,
please take my hand
in gratitude
for so much passion stored
and shared.

That is not a poem, just a piece of prose that I've written in poetic form as an introduction to an announcement that the next issue of my quarterly online magazine New Nurturing Potential (publication date end of December) is being prepared.

The Autumn issue, published in September 2014, included a poem from Hello Poetry contributor Amy Bells, which she kindly allowed me to publish therein.  I intend to publish more Hello Poetry writers in the next issue and will in due course ask some of you for permission to include your work.  Maybe, just two or three.  

Meantime, if you wish to see the last issue (and archives!) you will find it at http://www.nurturingpotential.net/New-NP07.htm.  I'm happy to accept also any prose articles you would like to contribute.

Thank you again for your validation of my efforts.
