Poem
How do you define love? I mean what is it really, How can I feel so much love for so many people here that I barely know ...because I do. You have all been so kind and accepting of me. Many of you know how I feel. That I know I am not a poet. I am not fishing for a compliment when I say this. I know how kind you all are. People have been more than complimentary of my work here. It is how I feel and I do not want to get long winded as to why. It is what it is. You have an amazing community here don't let any one trample over it. Keep supporting one another Keep your loving ways. No matter your religious beliefs there is a light here that shines bright. So I won't impose my beliefs but I think I can safely say without offending anyone this community is blessed. Forgive those who stray, many of us here are bruised some worse than others. We make errors. Again I love the people here. All the people here. I have not been able to comment on others poetry as much as I have wanted to of late. I am especially sorry to my friends whose poetry I have not frequented lately. How rude of me. Everyone deserves their wonderful poetry read. No excuses just I am sorry. I want to thank all the people who placed me in their contests and also thank those who didn't. I believe in my heart of hearts people always judged fairly. Sponsoring contests is difficult everyone second guesses you. In retrospect I learned and I grew from every experience. Thank You. So my loving friends, I am not here to say goodbye. I am here to say au revoir! I will be taking a small break from Poetry Soup. I hope to return soon. To learn my limits poetically and to stay within them. Enter less contests, read more, comment more and post less. I don't know how I can thank you all for your unconditional kindness. So many of you have touched my heart, made me cry. Sometimes sad, sometimes happy tears. I am sorry because it is hard for me not to love you all so much and I know it must sound insincere but it is me this is my heart, this is who I am I love you because of your poetry, because of your comments, because you supported me even in my blindness held my hand and showed me a path I could walk on. How do you thank someone for that. With All My Love Always, Armand.
