As we seen from the Literature board quite a while ago, there seems to be quite a few budding Boards poets out there and I think a Poetry Board on its own would be a very suitable way for them to get their poetry out there and heard by the other…

I know it's a form of literature and perhaps 'should' be on the Literature Board but, if there was a seperate Poetry Board then I think that readers would feel more inclinded to post up their poems and make them viewable for all to see.

An Author board may
Be a better idea

have you seen this thread? http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=56585

it's full of poems but it got to confusing to comment on poems 'cause they wree all on top of each other and all.

i made a proposal for a board like this a long time ago here is the post. http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=49755

There isn't really that much of a call for a Poetry board at the moment, those few people who have written have posted them on the Literature board prefixed with Poem : and that seems to have been working alright.
