Jack Ellison Poet Free verse

A Talented Loving Group

Laura my friend from the past

Has reappeared after ten long years

She was my first real friend

Here on the Soup and never forgotten

I was a little apprehensive

About joining coz of my inexperience

But Laura was one of the first

To put my old heart at ease  

Inviting me in with wide open arms

Making me feel totally at ease

So for as long as Laura is back with us

Her heart will be part of this loving group

Of really talented folks

To you dear Laura thanks a bunch!
