Friendship

From the time I joined the site
Really lovely poets have helped me
I have learned so many new forms
Even tried writing a few haiku poems
Never ever dreamed I’d be a writer
Doubted people would like my style
So many different forms to try out
How much joy writing has given me
I’ve even met some other soup poets
Poetry soup has changed my life!
