Happy Birthday, Larry 2011

The 9th of June is a "special" day. You're probably wondering why? It's Birthday number Fifty, for a "special" PS guy! His poetic talent is beyond reproach. He a genius of rhythm and rhyme. Whenever I read any poem that he writes, I'm impressed and amazed, every time! He exhibits a vast range of emotions. So many, that I am in awe! The ones that are really a riot, involve his mother-in-law! He can make you feel gloom and disaster. He can make you feel happy and proud. He can make you feel hope and compassion, or cause you to just laugh out loud! I wanted to write this memento to show just how I felt and wish a big Happy Birthday, to my poetic friend, Larry Belt. Now, this is what's gonna happen. It'll be on the 9th day of June! All you Soupers listen real hard, at, or real close to noon! I'm gonna shout, real loud, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! My friend, I sure hope you will hear it! Since, I can't physically be there with you, by God, I'll be there in spirit! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GOOD BUDDY Many happy returns

Is he really 50, Ralph? Larry looks so young and handsome in his photos. He does write in many different styles, evoking all of the moods and feelings you described. However, he is best known for his mother-in-law poems. LOL Happy Birthday, Larry, and thank you for letting us know in this wonderful tribute, Ralph. Love and blessings to both of you, Carolyn
