Poem
Soup Contest The day was Sunday The time was just after noon Church had just finished The choir that day enchanting You could feel the anticipation in the air A Soup contest like no other Everyone in the village was there Young, old, the happy and the sad All where hungry though Who would be the winner? Of the Magical Soup Festival Who Who Indeed!!! Seven finalists, all nervous and shaking Will it be me, of she or she over there? You could smell the flavors of competition Beautiful aromas floating in the air Now I was the judge in this contest fair I too nervous, how to choose a winner Did I even Dare? Then a thought dawned, happy was I Mondays prize, to the Chicken veggie soup Tuesdays prize to the Cream of mushroom soup Wednesdays prize to the Wedding broth soup Thursday prize to the Noodle and beef soup Fridays prize to the Bergen fish soup Saturdays prize to the Barley and Oats Soup Sundays prize to the Corn Chowder soup I placed 7 beautiful first prize ribbons On the happiest smiling faces I had ever seen My heart this day warmed by soup and the kindness Of all these giving cooks, proud and content The contest over All the village sat down To the festival of Soup Full stomachs and happy souls A winning event all around!!!! Notes: Often we create our environments and realities with our conceptions of life, For one to win, it dos not mean another has to lose, competition is great, however, kindness and compassion, are also great traits.
