Im Back

Remember when we were more than just a set of eyes? 
Reading what others write. 
Remember when we knew who everyone was? 
And what was happening in their lives? 
I have made some good friends here. 
Some who have helped me through some great fears? 
I know I am not alone when I say, 
That sometimes you need poetry soup to get away. 
To turn to the friends who understand you most. 
The friends that will sit up with you  late at night just to write, 
Because they know how it feels to be in that spot too. 
I noticed I had many views but what happened to you? 
I miss the poetry soup I once knew. 
Where a comment would be seen for every view. 
I know everyone is busy in their lives out there. 
But wouldn’t it be nice to see a comment or two. 
Glad to be back on poetry soup.. I have missed many of you ?

Amen to that. Cory used to know so many people on soup, by their work alone. I myself haven't been on a lot lately ,had a lot of medical problems, hospital etc. With my husband's death ,I lost my ambition for a lot of things .I still have a lot of poems I could put on ,and I still write . Well done with this one. hugs Anne

Dear Cory, Yes, the Soup certainly has changed. I, too, remember a time when people always left comments after reading poems. Thank you for stopping by and letting me know you're back on the site. My health is poor and my computer time is limited, but I do enjoy hearing from you. Hope you are doing well, old friend. Love, Carolyn
