Robert Pettit Poet Rhyme

Australian Poets

From the same land that is the home of the kangaroo,
and where the platypus and koala come from too,
we respect you members for everything that you do!
You have written many works with quality that’s true.
Your words and verses convey crystal-clear description.
Everything you write is a worthy composition.
Americans enjoy reading each new submission,
and we welcome any new members for admission.
You have exemplified friendliness and courtesy.
It is all tried and true; none of it is fantasy.
We in the United States tell you we all revere
all of our site members in the Southern Hemisphere.
May your production continue in a plethora.
We salute all of our members from Australia!

All of us can also give a hand
to those members currently in New Zealand.

Francine Roberts January 21, 2012 at 12:36 AM nice tribute to the poets from 'down under'

Andrea Dietrich January 20, 2012 at 8:48 PM I never spoke like that either, but I had a barrel of fun looking thru the urban dictionary for the 80's and I even recognized almost all those phrases from the movies and songs I remembered of that time!

Russell Sivey January 20, 2012 at 8:48 PM What a wonderful poem here Robert! I also am honored to have so many Australian writers here on the Soup! They have such a knack of writing that compares to none! And I agree with Andrea...plethora is such a great word and should be used often! Awesome Work!!

Andrea Dietrich January 20, 2012 at 8:21 PM How nice this is for our sweet Australian friends here. And I always love seeing Plethora used in a poem!!
