i cant remember the last time i read a good poetry book but i am a fan!
LOVE Nikki! Would definitely pick this up....!
Poetry genes don't skip anyone. I know how to make them come out talking. But it's costly.
Love poetry! I enjoy reading & listening to poems but I rarely, if ever (Hmm? I guess it has been awhile) write any.
I am a poet myself, I was recently published in an Adult Anthology "EROS 369 II" . I would love to get my hands on this book and see what Nikki considers talent. <3
I want this book!!!
I love poetry! I met Nikki Giovanni when she came to speak at my school [ I brought her through a group that plans speakers ] & she is amazing! I would love this book!
I love poetry and write poems here and there. I'd love this book!
The winner is Jennifer! Congratulations! Please email me your mailing address.
Hey Chi town homie! Yesterday my niece asked for poems by Black females to share with my grandniece, a 13-yo poetess. A friend recommended your site and voila. I'll be waiting with bated breath for publication. (unless u want to award a 2nd copy)
I'm sure this will be a good book, with good talent, but with out my poetry it can't be the best. Soul Natural.......... Love ya BGG!
