The first poem with confirmations has arrived. I would like to post everyday that I got some in the mail.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7785881930867357683-1367213648316400124?l=peaceandpoems.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peace and Poetryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16782514239542785954noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785881930867357683.post-13325996431152097052007-11-06T15:07:00.000-08:002008-02-11T17:27:14.827-08:00I invite everyone to send a poem to each of their political representatives as a direct plea for peace.<br />If you do, I will publish the poem in a book.<br /><br />You can find contact information for your representatives at <span style="TEXT-DECORATION: underline">www.usa.gov</span><br />Please use the LOCAL OFFICE mailing address.<br /><br />I ask that you send the poem with a Signature Confirmation from the US Postal Service. This ensures the poem is received by the designated representative. Then send me a copy of the poem and record of the Signature Confirmation.-You can send me the paper receipt or the online version-the Signature Confirmation tracking number. There is a charge for the Signature Confirmation but I think its worthwhile to use the service.<br /><br />You can find information about Signature Confirmation at ww.usps.com/send/waystosendmail/extraservices/signatureconfirmationservice.htm<br /><br />IF you feel uncomfortable mailing your own work or know non-poets who would like to participate, simply find a poem that speaks to you and give credit to the poet who wrote it. Please make copies of any poems you send. I cannot be responsible for original versions and their return.<br /><br />IF you mail different poems to each of your representatives, I will select one poem to publish.<br /><br />It would be great if you could include a note that specifies the poem is sent because you are participating in "Peace and Poems". "Peace and Poems" is a plea to U.S political leaders to immediately work towards peace and NOT make decisions based on greed. This is a plea to bring US soldiers home from combat and it is a plea for legislations that embody peace-justice and sustenance for living things.<br /><br />You can email any questions and/or your submission and confirmation to<br />peace(at)poetryinbaltimore.com<br /><br />Peace and Poems<br />8130 Clyde Bank Road<br />Baltimore, Maryland 21234<br /><br />THANK YOU!<br />Julie Fisher<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7785881930867357683-1332599643115209705?l=peaceandpoems.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Peace and Poetryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16782514239542785954noreply@blogger.com0
