First of all remember to close your center tag.
Yes it will center the text, but not in the document, in the table. If you want it in the center of the page, make the table 100%.

I rarely get mad, but cross-posting is a frustrating problem for those that frequent these forums. It's really bad when you spend a good amount of time trying to solve someone's problem only to later find the 2nd post with the answer already given. Just about everyone does it once...we just don't want it to happen again. No problem! Oh, and you reach "senior" status with your 100th post.
Now, onto your problem...
Do you want your table centered in the page, or the text centered within the table!? You didn't specify. Your incomplete code example didn't have any width attributes for the table nor the cell.
Below are two examples of centering.
Text centered within the table cell (NOT centered in the page):
<TABLE STYLE="filter:glow(color=springgreen, strength=8)">
<TR>
<TD align="center">
All OF My Poems
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
Table centered in page, text is not centered in table cell, but could be by adding the align="center" as seen above:
<div align="center">
<center>
<TABLE STYLE="filter:glow(color=springgreen, strength=8)">
<TR>
<TD>
All OF My Poems
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</center>
</div>
I've seen a couple of your posts now, and you tend to leave out proper coding (closing tags, etc). I don't mean to step on your toes or anything, but you may wish to familiarize yourself a little more with HTML before tackling specific projects/additions to your page, etc. One of the best "easy to follow" tuturial sites is www.LissaExplains.com . It's "for kids" but I been there quite a few times...and I'm far from being a kid (at least in age).

yea, i look there too, but where i got the glowing text is from http://www.funky-chickens.com/text.shtml it's in the text area, and that's all the code it shows. it's not really a table, its just letters, i know quite a bit of HTML, i just never tried to use to stuff like this. so go to that link to see what i mean. im just not sure how to center the text. (About Lissa Explains It All, I have read every page of her stuff)
