Dear Poetry Editor,

Please consider the attached/enclosed poems entitled, “It Can Happen To You,” “In His Hands,” “In God's Hands,” “I WISH YOU LOVE,” and, “Ignition,” for publication in a future edition of “Empty Mirror.” I feel like my work would be a good fit for your publication.

I am a photographer, writer of an online blog and daily spiritual devotional as well as the author of five poetry anthologies that were available through PublishAmerica. My poems have been published in many magazines and online ‘zines, including, “The Pangolin Review,” “The Quail Bell,” “Oddville,” “Madness Muse,” and “Narwhal’s Lament,” to name a few.

Thank you in advance for your consideration.

-Lou Marin
