Poem
I've roamed the halls of Poetry Soup for nearly nine years and had lots of ups and downs, cried happy and sad tears Some poets are super duper people that I call my 'friends' There are some snoopers who have need to make amends Soupers are a varied lot from different backgrounds in life But never should there be reason for enmity, vitriol or strife I've laughed at humorous scribblings of many bawdy limericks Shook my head at rude comments that have caused conflicts Those few are in the ranks of poets I call 'the party poopers' And there are some who enjoy interfering ~ 'the bloopers' They spread rumors that cause chaos in the soup kitchen The site would be much better if they would stop b****in' I cannot claim my innocence for I've battled a time or thrice When bullies and trolls have said things that weren't very nice I've been called a 'mean girl' but it's a name I take in stride Bet money on it being said again and I'll say, "Let it Ride!" I've written for other poetry sites, but I remain in the Soup and if you question why I've returned, well, here's the scoop... There are fantastic men and women here that I have met who are sincerely kindhearted. I owe them gratitude as a debt I prefer to ignore those who cast aspersions with a snicker But like most kinfolk, there will be times when we bicker As a community of artists, we are writers of poetic verse with a common interest shared across the entire universe We should strive to be united with the same goal in mind 'Respect each other as Poetry Soupers and remain aligned' Positive comments are encouraging. Ladle them and you'll see That supporting Super Soupers will keep the site hassle free
