Fellow Soupers

My friends My friends
The ones who tell me when my poetry is bad
The ones who give me hugs when I'm down
My friends My friends

You have helped me blossom
Into the world of poetry
Letting me explore my creativity
And see the ways of others

Sharing your own works
Giving helpful suggestions
Soup Mailing when a talk was needed
Chatting and laughing like old friends

When the people in world
Didn't seem so supportive
Of my dreams to become a poet
You were there, and you lifted me up

Helping me see a new perspective
You let me know I wasn't alone
Constructing me a path
With many freedoms

Now as I work towards getting published
With the help of my family at that
I must thank my fellow soupers
Without you I wouldn't be where I am

My friends My friends
You've truly helped me see
All that I can be
My friends My friends




Thanks so much, for all you have done to help me see what I can achieve.  I am working with the help of my 
family on getting published now, and I believe a great much of it is owed to you.  I'd especially like to thank, 
Carolyn Devonshire,  Maryam J. Haniff, Breana Wiggins, Tyesha Ehigiator, John Loving iii, Christopher 
Ferguson, Derrick Burton, and Alli B.  I couldn't have done it without all of your support.  Thanks again!
