For All You Dear Soupers

The poem I'm writing right now's number eight For me that is special; I must save the date I've been cranking them out, one on top of another For all you dear Soupers, all my sisters and brothers I'm really quite lonely; that's the reason I write The family I come from was nervous, uptight My parents and siblings were rather difficult folks Had trouble relaxing---couldn't tolerate jokes I understand it's not real; I comprehend the illusion Yet all you dear Soupers are my daily (blood) transfusion You comment so kindly on my poems each day Better than money, your words; they're my actual pay So as I conclude these lines of inadequate appreciation Let us meet again tomorrow ~ same time and same station

If I had won the Billion dollar lottery, I would have held the First Annual Poetry Soup Convention and paid for eveyone's travel expenses - and you (and your lovely wife) would have been the first ones invited!
