Poetry Submissions, to cB news Options

[sadolakced acid]

hello poets!

the cB newspaper (letter, whatever) is looking to feature a poem (or two) every issue.

so: if you want us to consider your poem for featuring please:

1. Post your poem(s) in this thread
2. Post a link to the thread with your poem(s) (if you didn't make a thread already for your poem, then just say no thread)

please, no comments - if you wish to comment, click on the link to that poem.

please note that we are cannot feature every poem, and we may not be featuring the best poem; we also consider the emotion that the poem evokes, and if it fits with our publication. Poems submitted will always remain in consideration.

She gave me life, and I gave her mine (Fiction)
I watched as my mother took in another puff
I hated to see her suffer from breathing problem and all that stuff
We tried giving her some medication but that did no good
She would always smack them away, we did all we could
One day as I set aside my books and my bag
I found a medication on the table with a white warning tag
I took a look at the strange object and read what it said
Take one per day, the symdomes are aches in the head
But she just bought it today and the bottle was half empty
I crept to the bedroom as quiet as I could be
There she layed lifelessly on her bed
Think about others rather than yourself was what my father said
I called the hospital in no time they came to save her
They said she could have an operation, i asked what the options were
The doctor said she needed an extra kidney but they had none
I thought for a moment and did something I would have never done
I told them to give her mine just so she could come back
The doctor sent me on my way with only a lolli and a sack
I missed my dear mother but what could I do
She was not healthy and I would die too...
