A Souper Friend Corrected Copy 2
A SOUPER FRIEND
I searched the Soup, but failed to find
Just one friend that I call mine
I'm in a tizzy now, you see
'Cause many of you are friends to me
There's Hinshaw, Cunningham, Silent One
Winged Warrior, Allison, Gauthier, and Dunn
LuLoo, Sandra, Andrea, and Brenda
Rhoda, Maureen, Anne-Lise, Lisa-Marie
SKAT A, Poet Destroyer, the list goes on
Without such friends, I'd be alone
I know not how to devise an exhaustive list
I'd leave some out -- you get my gist
Ibeh, and Lee, Sr., McGuire, Messina
Lamoureux, McGee, and Lady Regina
Arturo, McConnell, and Wigley
All these names make my brain squiggly
Wendy, Panagiota, Kim, and Darlene
Buhagiar, Barden, Gershon, Emile
I could type the names of many others
Who seem to me like sisters and brothers
And if your name is not on the list
As I said before, many will be missed
But never fear, you're still in my heart
And always have been right from the start
For sponsoring such a contest, I still can say
I even have a good friend named Bobby May
So don't get mad if you don't see your name
I still love you just the same
So ends the list in the essence of time
And I will now just close this rhyme
And submit it for Soupers as a To Be Read Only
And call you to mind so I won't be lonely
I'll just relax and thank the Lord above
That I have so many friends to love
And say to the thousands of Poets at Soup
Every one of you are friends in my group
