Three Cheers For Poetry Soup

My friends on P-Soup are loyal and true Every morning I rush to my computer To read all their happy upbeat comments And suddenly the sun breaks through the clouds At times, I must admit I have thought of leaving When everyday trials cloud my vision But then I quickly come to my senses I would certainly have withdrawal sysmtoms Similar to those folks abstaining from alcohol I would have to join “P-Soup Anonymous” for help To get me through the difficult and trying times Without the aid of friends and family I'd be a broken man aimlessly wandering the streets As I sit here writing, I am convinced This will never ever come to pass Alright, I'll admit it... I'm obsessed There! I feel much better now Admitting I have a problem is half the battle So it seems I'll be here for the foreseeaable future Thank you all my dear friends And three cheers for Poetry Soup! © Jack Ellison 2014

Three Cheers for Jack! I run here first thing every day to read your stuff! I've been slow this week while painting around the front door a pretty deep blue trim color. Dragon's been helping and you know how he can slow things down! But I must say, That color does look nice on him! If he keeps spilling my paint every where. I may have to repaint the front of the house, again! And that pretty white column I finished painting? Think I might just call those blue streaks converstaional pieces. LOL
