Yesterday I posted a poem about the negative side I experienced on soup in my early days, today my poem is completely the opposite and is a tribute to a very special super souper. 5/3/25

Picture posted with kind permision of Lin x

Lucky me for having Lin in my life for nearly a decade I've had her friendship, loyalty and unwavering support Never has there been an inkling of cross words between us Lin is an amazing poet and her paintings are beautiful Always ready to offer her time and assistance to others Nothing is too troublesome for her when someone is in need Editor of both my books; for her patience, I'm ever grateful.

What a smiley face you have me wearing, Jan. ;-) You've always been my shoulder as much as I've been yours. "Thank you" seems far short of what I'm feeling, so I'll send you a big hug for your kindness, and to everyone who has commented. You know I love you.

Thanks for dropping by Tom, the poem yesterday and today are such contrasts I wanted to add some balance by doing a positive poem after the negative one yesterday! hugs Jan xx
