Ululations of a Maid

Where my body may dwindle, As hunger saddles the atmosphere But sounds of Joy will always jingle; As Mama will lushly care Take me to that place Where shelter may not shield from cold, Yet I am cuddled in love untold Where luxury os but a tale, But zest never goes stale Take me to that place Where I am clothed in nakedness, But not stripped of my happiness Entangled by poverty's web, But free from the wrath of a boss Take me to that place Take me home!

Eden,... Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
