Understanding Graphite by Oonah V. Joslin
We were pleased to find an electronic mountain of entries for our Spring Poetry Contest. We had numerous wonderful poems to read and the competition was close, very close. We had decided from the outset that the poems would be ‘judged blind’ so that each poem would be evaluated on its merit rather than its author. Postcard Poems and Prose thanks everyone who wrote to the prompts and sent us poems. Without your creative souls there would be no poetry here at PP&P.

Oh wow – way to go, Oonah! A lovely piece of work – I love ‘pencil potential’ and ‘to a point’ is clever.
