A Sanctuary-Safe and Strong-W

People don’t have to migrate to be citizens to this palace, Over here life burning well creativity is the ash Even the poorest gets the best sanctuary The status not inevitable here in this heaven Rare infusion of mind and heart, not an illusion Yearning to write and to be read with pleasure Poets, writers, commoners, dreamers old and young An African-Asian-European-Australian-American all Lands are free, homes are beaming with activities A problem of racism unknown, prejudice, malice dead Come all sane, insane, to record the best or the worst Eventually let the Goddess of poetry soothe our hearts. ===================================== First place win in: Contest: Poetry palace sponsored by Linda-Marie

I'm feeling this write so much. I totally agree, this community of poets rocks. Writing is one special thing that all of us here have in common. Great write, and thank you for your kind words on my poem "Crystal Death" too.

yes i feel this is a place i can come and feel welcome any time, it is my second home, this was a great piece you wrote Dr Ram, it really lifted me up today. Thank you for reading Then Came the Rains and for your kind comment. as far as those other poems, there is no other poems, when i posted this one, and i went back to look, there were those two blank spaces, so i do i get rid of them?

This really is a place where people of all races and ethnicities find common ground and share their thoughts. What always amazes me is how much we have in common with people from other countries. Our hopes, dreams and ambititions are all similar. You did an outstanding job of describing the special quality of Poetry Soup, Dr. Ram. Best wishes in the contest. Love, Carolyn
