" Brave Decisions Make Differences "

How many comments To praise many writes Have been posted on This quite incredible site How many comments Need not said at all But said they are As their credence falls Brave decisions Make differences To eradicate the references That bring this site into disrepute As one by one, the Poets shoot Our words we share for them to read And in their reads their comments feed Not to down, only to say As many poems come their way In various forms and many words To be polite and not absurd This Poetry site we have to save Or we become the vulgars slaves Struck down by a poisoned pen Thank goodness there's not many of them So at the helm, please read the above Bring the site back to the one we love This Poetry Soup family are here to stay To write and read, on our choice of day

yes we all want input, yet we bare our souls, and one (me very much included) must try to be oh so careful with our input. I ask forgiveness if i upset anyone, I just so love poetry and talking about it.

Yes, I think our family is here to stay..I'm sure his mother would be horrified at his writing. Or maybe not. BG

Amen to that, James! And I love not only the message, but also the writing. I hope everyone who's suffered at the hands of the "poison pen" read this.

well stated James, I understand why people have been upset...no one enjoys standing by when their friends are hurt, all the more antagonizing when its done in-absentia...cooler heads are prevailing...Jim
