Terry,, Stopping by to greet you and every other soup poet, with a special thank you comment, during this wonderful Thanksgiving season. Hope you do not mind the time I am taking to express my sincere appreciation for any support you have offered during the years, or time you have been here on the soup. I am deeply thankful and extend to you my best wishes for a happy and healthy Poetic Magical Thanksgiving Day. *Always & Forever, the Poet Destroyer; -*

We elect lawyers and politicians. It's like buying a fox to keep an eye on the chickens. The dream needs to be taken back.

You are so right as we have become insurance, lawyer and government poor. Their hand is in our pocket more than our's is. Love and Peace TLee

America is scared and frazzeled right now except for the rich. The rich have been systematically selling us out for years and years not to mention using us for pay they wouldn't even get out of bed for. Now because we want them to pay back we are lazy louts who want freebees. Thanks for your suportive review Huggs TLee

Hey I can't do a review for you as I have reviewed everything you have posted. Hey Irishman put some blarney down on paper as I know you can but oh what beautiful blarney.

A Hiaku I was always told before is supposed to deal with only nature but I guess the rules there have changed. A Senryu deals with any other subject. But as I said they keep changing the rules so your guess is as good as mine. Huggs hon TLee

It's probably not kosher but with the economy and the job situation here not to mention the political unrest I felt it was what I wanted to say. Thanks for the review and being a friend. Huggs TLee
