FORUM

Welcome home!

At The Poetry Cove Forum, we are dedicated to bringing together poets from all over the world. We believe that poetry can be a powerful tool for connection and community, and we want you to have a place where you can explore your craft in an environment that is friendly, welcoming, and supportive.

We are committed to providing this space for you because we believe that everyone deserves a chance to express themselves creatively and share their work with others who share their interests.

We hope you will join us in creating an open-minded, accepting, and supportive community of people who can help each other grow as poets.

Can a short collection be risky?

in Poetry Discussion

I am almost done with my work and I don't see it being any longer than 100 pages. I honestly did not want it to reach past 50. Only because I want to add a surprise in the ending. I am very confident in my upcoming piece. It will be all my very best work chosen from throughout this year. It will still involve a fluent story. I am on the edge constantly trying to play the cards right. I can't wait to share in the future.

What are your opinions on small collections? Are there cards to be played right?

Thanks Adam. I was overthinking this😂 and very true, I'll know when its done! Just have to let time do its thing! I really do need to thicken my book shelf. I have some of the classics like Edgar and Wordsworth. I recently picked up some Donald Hall as well. I'll get to shopping! thanks for the reply and have a great day.
