I can't find my draft that I saved?

I can't find my draft that I saved?

I saved a draft and cannot find it to continue to work on it?

At times when I submit a new poem, it takes two or three replications to finally get it added to my poems?

Dear Poet,
someone will get to you asap, that works here.
I would save your drafts to your computer,
until you have finish'd your write.
I have done that as well and happens to me.
heck I have some I can't delete.
The great webmaster here is very overwhelm'd
with personal issues, please be patient,
until the master returns, or the site
appoints another technician to help you.

This might be a timely place to mention it’s a good idea to keep a printed copy of our poems. I went through today and printed all of the poems I have posted here on OP. Talk about a walk down memory lane!

I could never understand the reason to save your poem in draft
when you add a new poem.......never made any sense. I always
write my poems in Word Perfect first and then post them, and that
way I always have them in my Works folder........I send a copy to
myself via email, just in case I lose my memory......my computer
memory, that is.....
............................................grin...................................................

G, brilliant method, yes, that way there is a time stamp.

The modern.

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
