Home Contents Poem of the Week Book Orders About Me Privacy Policy Reciprocal Links A potpourri of sites that have linked to this site.

Note: Regretfully, since I can no longer even read all of the email I have been getting, I am forced to discontinue this service. But please feel free to use and, as necessary, modify any poems on my site. Please direct all email correspondence to the webmaster at poemsforfree.com. Because of the very high volume of requests, I can write poems for less than 1% of the requests that I get. Therefore, I suggest that you look under Contents at the poems I've already written to see whether one of them suits your purpose. You are free to use them and to change them as necessary (names, hair color, etc.). If you make changes, you should add after my name as the author: "modified by (your name)." Also, if you give me only a few days in which to write a poem, it is much less likely that I will be able to do it for you. If you would like me to write a free poem for you, please send me a message at nick@poemsforfree.com with the following information: --Type of Poem (Love Poem, Thank You Poem, Birthday Poem, Name Poem, Number Poem, Sonnet, Villanelle, Rhymed, Unrhymed, etc.) --Occasion, if any (Birthday, Wedding, Anniversary, Graduation, etc.) --Date by Which Poem Is Needed --What You Would Like the Poem to Say Be aware that I have my own agenda here. My purpose in writing poems for free is not to do you a favor but to gather material for poems I would like to write. Given the volume of requests, I may or may not send you anything. Please don't count on getting anything from me. In accordance with my privacy policy, no information you supply me in order to aid me in writing poems for you will be released to third parties for any purpose whatsoever. No information given to me by you will be released to any organization, commercial or otherwise, for any purpose whatsoever. If I do send you a poem, you may use it as you like, under the conditions noted in the second and third paragraphs of my home page. If you sell the poem, you must send me a reasonable percentage of your profit. I retain the copyright and all residual rights. I promise to read your information with care, and if I have the time to meet your deadline and am able to write the poem, I will do my best to send you something both you and I will be pleased with.
