Anonymous Angels


You gave my heart and soul a lift;
   a secret angel sent a gift.
      Who is this fine, kind poet friend,
         to me, paid membership extend?

To Premium was made the shift;
   You gave my heart and soul a lift.
      Now as a poet I can grow;
         use audio, let pictures show.

I wish to thank you...him or her,
   to know your name, I would prefer.
      You gave my heart and soul a lift.
         in this great 'soup' I'll swim and drift.

Oh, thank you, angel, very much!
   Your heartfelt gift, I now will clutch;
      thru rhythmic words and meters sift.
         You gave my heart and soul a lift.

My poem is fictional because I never received an anonymous gift from a
person.  So I wrote how I would feel if I had received an anonymous Poetry Soup Premium Membership as a gift.

Sandra, what a nicely penned way to show appreciation and gratitude, fictional or not. I've never been gifted anonymously but I have given gifts anonymously and to watch the recipients just so happy, is PRICELESS! Best of luck in the contest! :) ~ Artsie
