Thank you Omar for the recognition, appreciate it.

Just submit the poems. You will notice a measurable increase in size after doing so.

Now timing is everything. I have not the foggiest idea if there is an ideal time to submit, not submit. I do think publishers are always need and are searching for something that they think will have an audience. ALWAYS.

Rejection definitely sucks. It's a lousy reward for honesty and vulnerability.

It seems that your journey is opening up to all kinds of wonderful opportunities, so happy for you. I like the format as is but if you feel that you need to change it ….it’s your call. Loved the poem by Rumi….it’s obvious that the light is entering in you!
