Today I'll try the most
to read before I post
stuff of my own.
I'll read here on Vocal
post from afar or local
by people new or known.
~
Do my part for Community
comment to aid unity
not just hearts as I am prone.
How many? Seven or six?
likely vary, but the picks
will depend on notifications to me thrown.

I want to think of others
(c'mon; you're my sisters and my brothers!)
I'm not here all alone!
So: post after I read
and comment- it's decreed!
and highlight those that truly shone.
~Vocal: could you do the lift your voices thingy again this year on a regular basis? PLEASE?~
~Comment welcomed!

Great comment to Vocal!!! Alsi, it would be nice if they brought back Tuesday's 12 noon chat with Vocal. It's been so long that I forgot the exact title. Love the uplifting tone!!!❤️❤️💕
Such a positive, community-driven mindset! You’ve got a nice rhythm going with this one. The flow feels like a call to action, not just for you but for others too. Keep shining in your interactions, you’re making the platform better!✨
I know I read as much as I can but still somehow feel it's not enough 😅😅
Judy, that was so inspiring ❤❤ From making people understand the importance of reading others' work to requesting Vocal for more "Raise your Voice threads" this year? Brilliant work ❤😊 Deserves a TS ✨
This is great encouragement.
Great encouragement and reminder to Vocal as well as all creators. Read others works especially if you wish yours to be read.
I love this! It makes you remember that to be part of a community is to be active within it. Support your fellow creatives in whatever ways you can to get your voices heard!
What a great poem and writing what your plans are. Good job. I comment on posts for it makes me feel good to help others.
It's always nice to read a poem by you <3
The Raise your voice is my fave. It s really uplifting to see creators shouting each other. Wish it was weekly though :)
Nice one,Judey!! I like it… and your comment to Vocal😍
