Alphabet Soup

Alphabet soup served piping hot
                            
                              In your bowl ladle up the lot 

A Poet Destroyer stirs up the soup  

         While A Nathan joins in the diverse group with his works

Michael Ainsley joins the conglomerate 
                            
                                 with his poetic alphabetic tricks

Who in the bowl floats up next

        Daver Austin a music whiz laying out stanzas quite appetizing

Which letter would I like to see now
  
                 Maybe some who have come and gone quite recently

Therese Bacha who pours out her soul

                               Poems written with passion and emotion into the bowl

James Fraser whose romantic and passionate lines

          Filled the bowl with affairs of the heart

Now they've gone missing from the soup pot

Hi Sara, I just read your poem, and want to thank you so so much, for this beautiful heartfelt verse you wrote about me, I shed some tears, to realize how much you do care about me. I love you, and of course nobody did a thing, its ok with me, I have you and Charmaine, who are really my closest, and Lucy, she is a very good friend to. When she was sick I nearly phoned her up everyday. and Andrea is also a friend. we will stay in touch. Love Terry
