On behalf of myself and @cheeky~k8 - Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you all!

We hope to see you in 2023, as we move forward with P&A! Online.

The reincarnation of Poetry & Art! Online site was short-lived back in 2015. Unfortunately, a mixture of personal health issues and costs of maintaining the site became difficult.

I personally didn't lose interest and I do believe there's room for a site like P&A! Online to help encourage the creative side of individuals. Whilst social media is great, it can be a less productive place to share your muse, and ultimately we're designed from the ground up to not only offer honest feedback but also provide a supportive place to mould our talents and grow further.

Why join? Or come back?

Admittedly, there's little to encourage old members to return, and this is even discouraging to new members.

Those that remember the site's beginning will hopefully remember the spirit which united us and, even saw the site grow to 1,000 members. Back in the earlier days of the internet with a flourishing support network forming. I believe with patience, support and care that a community like ours can grow as a place to help each other.

I fully own the mistakes I made before, yet I hope we can encourage old and new members to join in.

This time round, P&A! Online won't be going anywhere.

Thank you for your support.

Some interesting pictures, it seems strange people would visit something which appears to be abandoned and yet the information makes it intriguing.


Great share!

Dear members/visitors,
I would like to wish you all a very merry Christmas and a happy new year! Have a wonderful time folks!
Poetry & Art! Online will be looking forward to a productive 2016.

Quantum in Solace

 
 
When I am older,

will I have solace?

Will I see greatness,

happen before I die?

Or will my eyes,

still see hurt,

And tire of my unwinding heart?


Will my mind know,

equanimity?

When I am old?

Through time heals no pain.

It only creates holes,

in my mind,

Where the echoes of retention leave my soul.


And the sound of music,

reminds me of innocence.


And the sound of voices,

Remind me I am loved.

Powerful start, it absolutely gripped me and just the visionary used makes it so appealing.


In fact, it\'s the opening lines which I personally like the most!

      Plagiarising contests of the storm

      Unnatural colour subdued and caught

This really did catch my attention.


Keep \'em coming!

I thought it was another angel mate, though the more I looked, the more I realised that the swooping aspect beneath - formed what appears to be an outline of a mountain.


Also liking the work near the bottom.

It was over the 3 minute mark whereby I asked myself \'When is Stewart going to sing\'.


This is probably because I was enjoying the guitar work and slightly preoccupied. Yet, despite the vocals there\'s something really peaceful and beautiful about it - Have you put lyrics to this at all? (just out of interest).


Great job mate.

Christmas is exactly what I need right now.


Though, I\'ve just performed an upgrade and need to fix the theme - or ask a friend to fix/upgrade that. In the process of speaking to my host regarding some malicious activity we have experienced, nothing major and this happened a few weeks back now but it\'s funny (in a sense) because I am sure http://poetryartonline.com/profile/7-jake/?do=hovercard\" data-mentionid=\"7\" href=\"<___base_url___>/profile/7-jake/\">@Jake could have done worse damage had I granted him access.


Mind, I have all the information required.


Just spending much of my time recently with my family and planning things properly. The start of this place, will soon be replicated and I can only apologise to those who have contributed whilst I\'ve been occupied/ill.

I wasn\'t a big of Def Leppard, though I must admit I was pleased to hear this. Rock music\'s missed bands like this!

Congratulations to /profile/9-spacemonkey/\" data-ipshover=\"\" data-ipshover-target=\"http://poetryartonline.com/profile/9-spacemonkey/?do=hovercard\" data-mentionid=\"9\">@SpaceMonkey and his better half on the birth of their little bundle of joy.

Little Roland was born at 4:35am.

Brilliant news bud, I hope you don\'t mind me sharing this with the community. Just for old habits, I almost wrote \'SpaceMoney\' LOL... Do you recall how I used to do that from time to time bud?

Send our regards to your wife also bud.

I really hate seeing people putting themselves down, the vocals aren\'t as bad as you think - at least for me. It\'s far better than what I could do! Mind you, I don\'t mind speaking now but singing near anyone is a big no no. You sounded like you had fun, which for me is the bigger picture and I feel I should know the original but I don\'t.

Interesting idea though, very creative too!

My knowledge of Dexter is pretty limited, I didn\'t really like it.

I\'ve just finished reading upto the second page where it mentions the bleach. It reads well, it\'s not really an area where I feel I could proved much feedback, this is more /profile/4-joe-jones/\" data-ipshover=\"\" data-ipshover-target=\"http://poetryartonline.com/profile/4-joe-jones/?do=hovercard\" data-mentionid=\"4\">@Joe Jones\'s neck of the woods but I did enjoy it. I didn\'t realise people wrote fan fiction like this for a site, seems to be quite popular.

Kudos for sharing! Keep \'em coming.

I love it, the colour, the clouds - it\'s just stunning.

It looks very \'heavenly\' and out of this world. Just magnificent! It\'s that cool, I am speechless! 

When I share this socially, I will include the gofundme page! I\'ll also ask /profile/4-joe-jones/\" data-ipshover=\"\" data-ipshover-target=\"http://poetryartonline.com/profile/4-joe-jones/?do=hovercard\" data-mentionid=\"4\">@Joe Jones to write up about it, he\'s sort of used to covering stories like these and it does it well.

I couldn\'t read the writing in the picture but I found the attached written below touching.

Keep \'em coming!
