All My Friends Are Poets

All my friends are poets
and I'm glad that this is true.
I would probably give it up
if not for comments from you.

When I feel it's not worth posting
your comments say I'm wrong.
If it wasn't for your encouragement
I wouldn't last too long.

So this poem is written for all of you
and you know who you are.
I'd never find such loyal friends
if I traveled to a star.

Hey. Star travel. Can't you see it?
Load up the word processor, Ma.

Thanks to all of you...Lary

What an uplifting poem. Yes, The Soup is more of a family than a site. You summed up my feelings quite well here. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us and for your kind words on the poem that James and I co-authored. Have a nice day! Karen
