Poetry Forum

The quandry is how to write something about oneself without being too self-deprecating, tedious or generally obnoxious...
My name is Kate.
I'm currently studying to be a veterinary surgeon therefore, in theory, creative writing of any kind is basically the antithesis of my scientifically orientated degree (and life).
However, I don't think I could live without it.
Having read the poetry here, I feel pretty overwhelmed by the obvious talent typing away at keyboards everywhere - nice to be involved in some small sense.

Welcome Kate

Don't be too depreciating, it will leave no room for any of us to outdo you. Good to see another science/biology person on board. I'm sure you'll love it here.

Cheers

Welcome Kate the vet.

Just jump in. Our bites are just bytes and most folks are friendly enough.

Welcome Babbit!
We are glad to have you. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask!

Welcome Kate

I'm a science/zoology person.
This is a great place for learning about poetry; reading writing and criticising.


Hope you enjoy the experience

Hey og

why didn't I know you were science/biology too? Hot damn, it seems to be a Dave & Kate thing.

I was a little embarrassed about being untrained in the company of so many erudite members.

I'm now showing my ignorance with ever increasing confidence.

Hey

I like mint-chocolate. Do you like mint-chocolate?

We come in peace, and in the floods. The Hotel Sylter Hof says "Wilkommen ins Berlin".

It's website ends in ".de".

Have fun horsing around here

Mint chocolate is ace - strawberry chocolate is slightly better....
What kind of zoology do you do Dave? Where bouts in Dublin are you? I originate from Palmerstown (well, my ma does)
