Hey nice to meet you. I do the same thing with my poetry. I can feel the emotions as I write and sometimes it gets intense especially with the darker emotions. Id love to read some of your poetry. Feel free to pm me or add me as a friend if you can.
Hi there! I would totally add you as a friend, if I knew how. : )

I usually like to lurk in the shadows a bit, but being pro-social is good too, right?
So, hi there everyone! I'm me, and I'm here. Glad to meet you!

It could be worse

Hello my fellow poets. I didn't know that you had to sign in to work on one's poetry, but I guess that I have been away for long enough!

That was done because of some bandwidth issues Chris. Good to see you back.

Hello all! I'm Jonsy. Before doing this I was a photojournalist. I always loved writing as a kid and poetry was always an outlet. I look forward to working and getting to know as many of you as I can. Later!

Hi  This is a new one for me. We've had a member or two that were about 9/10 dead, but usually it's the living working with the living. I guess if you have enough interest in poetry to read a bunch of poems and offer some thoughtful comments in the workshops you could become a member. If you do I guess you could post one of your dad's in Poetry Discussion and see if people were interested in responding, the workshops are for people interested in editing their work, and I guess your father is pretty well done with that.
I'm curious as to what you hope to gain from this. Do you enjoy reading them yourself? I found what I think is the only sonnet my dad attempted right around the time I was learning to write them myself, it made me smile. just knowing he had an interest in trying it.
Oh, and hi, Jonsy, welcome to the pen.
