I honestly cannot believe it. In 2007, two days before my 29th birthday, I wrote this post, welcoming the world to NinaAlvarez.net, my first blog.
Now, with over 130,000 hits and long lists of wonderful readers and thoughtful, engaged commentary, NinaAlvarez.net really lives separately from me.
I feel that the creation of this site and everything that happens here has had very little to do with me and more to do with the spirit of poetry. So much more powerful and intoxicating and healing than our current paradigm can make sense of.
All I know is, the more I stay out of the way, the better.
Therefore, in honor of the Fifth Anniversary, I’d like to share a poem from one of our readers…it could be you. Please submit an original poem about the life of poetry. Submit your poem either as a comment to this post, or email me directly at: nina@dreamyourbook.com.
Winner will be published at the blog.
Submit between now and the end of the day on March 7, 2012.
Good luck!
