+Amanda Rachelle Warren, for national poetry month, asked people to read aloud a poem on video and post it here to Google+ (http://goo.gl/KH9T7). How could I refuse someone so passionate about poetry? #pocketpoem
how do you do that?
a gaze
a glitter
sparkling
spies
my inner
thoughts
before you
lie
I race
to cover
an undressed
thought
my heart
a flitter
my mouth
gone dry
I've not said
a single
word
and yet
there's nothing
you've
not learned

VERY NICE SIR!!!
You should do MORE readings!!
Very nicely done!
Well done! 🙂
Thanks +Laurie Morrison and +Kyla Myers – you are too kind. Took me most of the day to build up the gumption. It was easier to brush my teeth with mustard. 😉
I have NO idea WHY, you have an excellent speaking voice & you read well. Next time just relax & have fun, what's the worst that can happen??? & bonus, you don't even have to brush your teeth again!!
+Scott Cramer I thought wearing that slave leia costume was easier :p
I'm chickened out on posting mine.
Great job!
SO MUCH LOVE!!! #Pocketpoem
You are my superbestfriend now!
You are my hero, Sir… 😀
Thanks +Aldric Newberry +Amanda Rachelle Warren +Mai'ta L'yeya Nava very much. You are all very kind!
Well done… The rocking chair was a nice touch! 🙂
Thanks Bro. So… where's your reading? You have until midnight to make it before the day's end, you know! 😉
Ummm… so basically I should have like not said anything. right?
Ha. Too late.
I can delete my comment. Maybe re-post it after midnight!
Screen cap.
Grumble…
Challenge accepted, poem posted with 3 minutes to spare! Only one take… for better or worse. http://goo.gl/TI2X9
Cramers are AWESOMESAUCE!
Inspired tonight by the queen word nerd herself, miss +Amanda Rachelle Warren .
I hope Poem in Your Pocket Day was a success!
I think it was an incredible success. I even contacted the folks at the Academy of American Poetry (they promote Poem in Your Pocket Day) and let them know about our #pocketpoem hashtag on G+…they got it going on twitter (bleh), but not to the same effect.
Thanks for being brave enough to share! Reading poetry is kind of unnerving sometimes.
It's only 11:30 here, I have another half hour to try not chickening out!
Do it +Kyla Myers ! Be brave!
Fine, but I'm doing mine on a coward. 🙂
In viewing it I realized I still have the 80s glam make-up wearing my face like a melted ice cream.
No go +Kyla Myers ?
I broke the internets along the way.
+Kyla Myers hahaha. nuff said. 🙂
+Scott Cramer I'm not sure what the problem is, but I can't get the video link to work on your post and on +Keith Cramer post. When I click on what looks to be the video link, it brings up a static picture. No video. It must be a mobile glitch. I'll try another time when I'm on my desktop computer.
+Jim Gomes I'm wondering if it is a G+ thing. The first third of Keith's video for me is really choppy with only a few frames of video and audio only, then it suddenly works. I tried it a bunch of times. A couple days ago a few people were saying the could not get a video on Matthew Rappaport's stream to play at all. No clue!
I noticed the same thing on mine when I played it back later. Yours works fine for me though.
