Yes to all and Happy Rally to all..:-)
(Done) Technically I'm done as I've fulfilled my requirement a few comments ago, but everytime I look up there is yet another wonderful poem to read! So I'll keep reading and commenting as the group shows up and of course I'll swing by if you leave a comment on my poem.
It is really going to be hard to pick just one nomination this week. Maybe I'll nominate everyone. ;)
Yes to all 7 - look forward to another great rally!
yes to all 7!
Aye aye!! Though my blog lives for 2 more days, I'll definitely comment in over 18 blogs :)... Happy blogging!
Keep telling this to yourself "I am a poet and I know it!" :)
As a former Girl Scout, I swear to join and comment on 18 blogs.
I agree, "I am a poet" and if I click my red glass slippers together, it will come true.
My first time in the Rally.
Yes to all. Can't wait to read.
Yes to all!
Happy Rally to all can't wait to read!

Thanks for hosting! I think it's a great idea for you to switch to just using the llinkz... especially if it saves you time. I actually find this format easier to read. :)

I am finally done with my more than 18 and shall continue on, good night and happy holidays to you who celebrate!1 :)
Mindsinger, you answer the questions in your comment, don't you see the comments above yours, saying,

after you are done, again, you leave a comment telling us you are done.
Thanks for asking.

18 done :)
I've completed my 18 and then some--hard to stop at 18! xoxo
yes. welcome, flurry.
Finished visits.
Yes, I've completed all of them...and then some!
Thanks for the inspiration!
Yes and yea and yes and yes and yes and yes and ... yes!
This looks like a cool blog!
Yes to all 7. I have posted my Week 42 Award and I nominate M.A.S. at
http://scribbledit.blogspot.com/ for the Perfect Poet Award. Thanks!!!
Yes to all
Wow-- I didn't get the announcement for this one-- rats! I tried to find you last week online but couldn't. Thanks for alerting me, Jingle-- I haven't missed a Rally since I started! Maybe you could make it easier to find you-- I have no trouble finding the Potluck.
Yes, and thanks again.
Completed my commitments and visits!
DONE :)
I already answered yes to the questions, but I sure missed the boat this week with my poem. That is why these postings are so valuable. They help us know when something works and when it doesn't. I wrote a metaphorical piece on the loss of the father, but all the comments are on the metaphor. I did a good job with that part :) Going to have to put this piec back on the board and do some more work on it. I'm so glad I found, or was directed to this site. Thank you!
Henry C.
Oops, I nearly forgot to say this. Yes to all the questions.
I think what you are doing is marvelous. I'm happy to post a poem, but my problem is that I just can't commit to commenting on 18 new poems, and some of the other requirements. They are very good requirements - don't get me wrong--and I think the idea of supportive commentary is terrific, but I know I don't just don't have the time or liberty at the moment to make the commitment. As a result, I feel reluctant to post a poem without "giving back" to your poetic community. I just know my limitations at the moment. Good luck with this. It's a great set-up.
Reading these now...though I don't know how many I have read!
DONE!!! Honestly I think I have lost count...I just started and kept finding. I am humbled...there is so much talent here!
Done. :)
Done with eighteen comments and still reading...
It's been a great week. Thanks :)
Thank you for stopping by! I really do appreciate your taking the time to leave a comment...I read each and everyone of them. I hope your day is a good one and that you will come back again soon. Take care. Nelson Souzza :)
Yes to all 7 :)
Ewan
done
seven yeses and I've already visited seven sites. - off to visit 11 (or more!) more. :)
Yes to all - thanks for the invite!
Yes, to all of the above! Thank you for the invite - now off to do a lot a reading!

DONE! Read and commented on more than the required eighteen. There are some amazing poets here.
Thanks!
I'm upset I missed this! I didn't see your invitation until this morning. I'll have to get in on the next one instead.
Please let me know where I can read more about this event..is it weekly?
Yes to anything that allows my expression to breathe and grow.

^Sorry, I accidentally used my personal blog's address to comment and I don't know how to erase it (I'm new here, and if you know how to erase that, please teach me). There's nothing there but random stuff so here, I'm using my poetry url to say Yes. I want to participate. I'll try. Thanks. :)

Happy rally everyone! :)

Agreed on all points.
Thanks, V., for putting this up.
Someone is marking me as "done" before I have finished commenting. Perhaps it is another "Rose" person that is done. Just thought you should know...
Thanks,
Gayle
Please disregard my previous comment about being marked "done". I was looking at the wrong rally listing. Sorry...
Yes to everything, thanks for the opportunity!
Yes I agree and have completed reviewing poets...that part was soooo fun!
jcahrens
