Poetry Soup

Poetry Soup: a place to ease out soothing lines that tickle, tease ears tuned to hear the world in verse, to invite others in, immerse, respecting all who craft and hone, yes, even views unlike our own. Support, encourage, walk beside one merry band of bards in stride, unlikely fellows all, this troupe: pursuing fragrant, tasty soup. ---------- for the Poetry Soup Beyond Its Name Poetry Contest sponsored by Beata Agustin written on 09/05/2022
