Open Link Monday

Welcome to the Imaginary Garden ...

uktv.com
Yes! It is our anniversary week in the Imaginary Garden and that calls for a celebration. The Imaginary Garden officially went public on 18 July 2011, which makes us three years old. I am amazed at how our poetry forum has developed over the years, and it has been a real privilege to get to know so many talented poets, and have some of the most ground-breaking creative writing to read, week after week. The support of the real toads has been phenomenal. I take this opportunity to thank all members, past and present for all that they have contributed to make this one of the nicest meeting places in the blogosphere. I am also grateful to all our loyal Followers, who consistently share their work with us, and are a vital part of our community.

Everyone is invited to link up a poem of their choice. In the spirit of our anniversary, I encourage you to dig into your archives for an older piece, today, if you have nothing new to share.

    I was going to abstain today, but since it is such an occasion--Happy Birthday to the Garden!-- and since Kerry suggested we might link an older one, I did so. I will be by to read after chores or in the morning, dear toads, toadettes, toadlets and toad followers.Thanks for all the hopping.

    Three years has gone by so fast and there has been a lot of wonderful writing and inspiration going on in the Garden all this time. Thanks, Kerry, and fellow Toads for all you all do to keep us informed, inspired and, best of all, writing. You are all Toad-ally Awesome!
