I Love Soup

An appetizer is the first part - of a meal
I love soup

And I like - alphabet soup
Such letters make up her eloquent bouquet

And one can’t go past such a delicious repast
Served daily at word restaurant - Poetry Soup

But this is just starters - the first part of the meal
For what comes afters’

Is no mean feast – it is served up with such verve
Your palate will be satiated- on succulent meat

And for dessert - what an amazing array to choose from
A cuisine of cultural delight-you’ll not have enough-

You will always want-more!

After this meal, most people will still be hungry for poetry. By the way Brenda, the word in your last couplet "desert" is the dry place with a lot of sand. The sweet thing at the end of a meal is correctly spelled "dessert". Nevertheless, everything is good.
