Encyclopaedia Of The World


While excavating information 
One website lead to another
And Whoa! I found Poetry Soup
Curiosity led me to register my name
I sent my first shweet verse for a competition
I sent some more for further competitions
A fortnight later I received congratulatory notes
For my placement in the competition
It created a world where I could be identified
Tears rolled down at the recognition by poetry lovers
Living across this huge globe but brought together
By a website of soupers sipping every soup
While connoisseurs evaluate their taste
More  congratulatory notes over the next four months
It taught me the value and worth of each souper
We  read different hearts and souls
At times unknowingly in a desire for friendship
Some get irked some misunderstand whereas
Some simply love and admire the emotions
Of people living in different continents and
Give their advice, mentor them, correct their flaws and
Continue being their silent guiding light 
Filaments of nature and attitudes to life
Become the encyclopaedias of the world in Poetry Soup
