SATURDAY'S POEM

A POEM FOR THE NEW YEAR
by Robert Schuler

a year spun around again
and what have I done
what is to be
                     done

Robert Schuler appears in two major anthologies of midwestern writing, Imagining Home and Inheriting the Land, both published by the University of Minnesota Press. His eleventh collection of poems, In Search of "Green Dolphin Street," was published by Marsh River Editions in 2004 and is available from the author, schulerr@uwstout.edu or E4549 479th Avenue, Menomonie, WI 54751, for $9.00 including postage. A new collection of his work is forthcoming from Juniper Press in February, 2005.

A NOTE TO THE POETS OUT THERE
I'm interested in considering your "poems of place" for publication in The Middlewesterner's "Saturday's Poem" feature; send two or three of your best in the body of an e-mail addressed to tmmontag@dotnet.com . Put "Saturday's Poem" in the subject line. Then be patient. I will get back to you about whether I'll use your work or not. Send along a short biographical note and information about where your books can be purchased and I'll include that when your poem runs. There's no payment involved for having your work appear in "Saturday's Poem," but the feature is seen by some few high class readers. Click here for complete index of and access to "Saturday's Poems" poems published prior to September 18, 2004.

Hello Tom ^_^

i was surfing online and thought i'd stop in to say hello. i hope you are well and that you enjoyed your holiday.

now that second semester is underway, i wanted to properly thank you for a wonderful class. it introduced me to a writing genre i now have a great passion for, and helped me to learn that inspiration isn't all that difficult to find, so long as i focus in on the little things. it's fueled my work immensely. so thanks--you are an amazing teacher. ^_^

i am interested in submitting something for "Saturday's Poems," and was wondering if i could and if it would still be accepted. i don't know if this is something for college students or not, but if so, i have some things i'd like to send.

brightest blessings, and happy new year!
