Deb Radke

She liked to read any limerick of mine. I also thought her work was fine. One of the finest writers any souper knew, Deb was also adept at haiku. She has not posted anything since May. What happened to her? Has she gone away? I check the new material each day. None of Deb’s work appears to my dismay. Reading your material was such a delight. Deb, you are welcome here at this site.

A very nice Limerick you have here. Robert. So many gifted poets are away from Soup...Yes, it's been a while since Deb has posted. I hope she gets to read this and come back. Best of luck for the contest. Love, Annalise
