I am very new to this site, just a few days, and I have been welcomed into a friendly atomsphere. The talent is more than obvious here, and yet there seems not to be the bickering and clawing to get to the "top" as is on so many other sites. There is an ease and peace here, a safe haven for one to present their poetry and know that one will receive honest critique. I am slowly building my foundation upon which to build my house in this "worldofpoets"; "write where I need to be." Nanci

As one of the seasoned poets of the site, I am always pleased to see the new poets being welcomed with open arms as I was when I first started. Worldofpoets allows the inner thoughts and desires of each poet to be known to the world. This site, to many like myself who may not have funds to become published, enables us to share our insights, our wishes and our dreams. Much like the dream that started this vision, I am so pleased to be a part of a family of writers. Worldofpoets is truely "write where you ought to be". Won't you join us to? Donna

It took me a while to finally get through alot of medical and personal things before I could join "World of Poets" NOW this gal has put down roots and isn't going anywhere. The knowledge, teachings, fun, creativity and joy I have found is incredible.
I have only scratched the surface yet. Fantastic people, not just strangers who write great poetry, each one make themselves available to help you hone your craft. Every review I have had has been full of encouragement and positive feedback. Yes you earn your marks around here but as in any family ( and that is what World of Poets "is...a family...there is much to learn and pass on to each other.
I can say with all honesty that I am thrilled Rob had the insight to build this home and fill it with such a huge fountain of knowledge, understanding and fun. World of Poets is full of heart. How much more could one ask for. I feel blessed. Thanks Rob for brainstorming and keeping in touch with me until I was able to finally join, let alone reasure me that this site is 100% on the up and up. Plus here for each other to enjoy, learn and share my love of the written word. God bless always. Mary Fraser

I was at another poetry site, but feeling disenchanted was told of worldofpoets.com. Thank God. The people who run this site actually listen to us. I have only been here about a week, but felt welcomed from day one. I have had so many positive reviews. It is good getting some feedback from your feelow poets. There is so much to help us with our poetry on this site. Thesaurus, Rhyming Dictionary..where else do you get that? I'll be staying round here for a while yet. Sarah

I had tried out most of the poetry sites on the web prior to finding World of Poets. I liked it from the outset because it allows one to try out the site before becoming a member. I have since then become a "golden" member. Having a BA in philosophy, I am probably a different kind of poet than most. All my work has been accepted with much appreciation on World of Poets. My work is in attempting to arise awareness of the scheme of things to as many persons as I can possibly reach so that they may become political activists for change. It has become the first and last enjoyment of my day. I would recommend World of Poets to any aspiring poet. It is a learning and inspiring site and I do not believe anyone would regret becoming a member. Thank you for the opportunity to speak for World of Poets!

You just cannot beat this wonderful World of Poets! Terrific group of writers who support and assist one another to improve our craft! Incredible on site resources--(Thesaurus, Dicitonary, Rhyming help, Poetic forms, Poetic Glosssary, guidelines for good reviewing, etcetera.) Even fun games to play when you need a break or that muse is elusive! Our administrator is supportive and personally involved in every aspect of the site. Regional representatives are assigned to all members to facilitate communication. More than I can say here...but I assure you. World of Poets is "Write where you ought to be"!!!!

I find the World of Poets to be a site that is truely democratic in its nature. Here we are given the right of choice through our vote and not just arbitrarily decided by the powers of those in charge what our course of action will be. We work as a team for the betterment of all. An atmosphere of congenial camaraderie and helpfulness seems to be the general premise among all who inhabit this site. A great place to hone one's skills in peace and harmony while making wonderful friends. Each new person brings added gifts and qualities to our ever growing family and are heartily welcomed making this a place you'd want to be.

I believe I came here on Sept 6, 06. I have enjoyed myself here more than any other poetry site I have tried. I did look around the block. Rob is a excellant web master- owner as he really wants to see his vision of World of Poets becoming the number one site on the internet. I have the same vision now and will do all I can to help. We all shall excell and make this a reality. This family is doing a lot of good for the big time, middle ground, and the just learning poet as well. Many compassionate people bring a sense of good to the site. I love it here and will spend most of my time here always. Finishing other commitments to help others come here. Doing my book writings is always ongoing as well. Blessings I wish, and hope for all,,,jimyson1/david/jimy

World of Poets is the best site I have ever been in. The minute I posted my first poem I was welcomed like that, no questions asked. No other site has given me that warm feeling like this one has. Everyone on here is truely a big happy family. This what sets WOP apart from others. And this is why I joined.

I have been a member of this site for a while now. It is the best place I have found to be. I was on another site that decided it needed a makeover and it got it! Everyone scattered. A lot of us ended up here and since I've been here I've made new friends as well as keeping up with old ones. While on the other site I attained the Poet Laureate status. I believe this site can give me far better information on poetry and I can learn a lot more from World of Poets. It is done in extremely good taste and if you have a problem, there is someone that actually cares that they get it fixed, unlike other sites I have been on and visited. I love this family of poets and intend on staying on here. What a joy to have the confidence in this site, it is great! As the saying goes "I am write where I ought to be!"

Hi, my name is Linda and I have been on this site for awhile now. Like many others here, I came from another site. I have seen many old friends come here and made many new ones too. This is a site for poets that love to write and want honest and helpful feedback. Everyone here wants to help and are more than eager to. If you need more help than is put in a review, just message any of the wonderful poets here. All are more than happy to share their knowledge. Try use. I know that you will find everything you are looking for "write" here. And I'm sure you will agree that this is "write where you ought to be". Be seeing you there..

Since I’ve been on World of Poets I have gained so much knowledge about poetry that I am amazed at myself. The kind and helpful poets and the links on the site have helped me grow in leaps and bounds. I have watched as this poetry site has grown from a hand full of dedicated poets to a legion of poetic masters and all the troubles and trials that go along with artistic differences in any form. Our brave and gallant leader has met each challenge head on and squashed any problem on the onset. His honesty and integrity is unmatched… With minimum difficulty navigation, reviewing and posting is just a fingers touch away. The site tools and data bases are the finest on the web, I use them constantly, especially the rhymer. I wouldn’t hesitate to put World of Poets site up against any poetry site on the internet! Its write were you want to be!! Amos Beck
