Frankenstein

A book about a broken man Is what I sit and read A tale of the ups and downs- A game of love and greed I turn the pages readily And languish in the hope But at the end of every chapter His dreams go up in smoke This book is sad and beautiful The paper worth the tree But who would think that with its ink The book is reading me

As for now, I will greet you with the same smile, others passed, when I first join the soup 4 years ago. I wish you the best when it comes to your compositions. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you wish. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND" Hugs* SKAT

Hi Kurdt! A belated welcome to Soup!! I was away on holiday and missed all that was going on; still trying to catch up on things. This is a lovely introductory poem with a title that appeared in my latest collaboration with Carolyn Devonshire. The ending is just great!! // paul
