I'M Part of a Special Group Known As the Poetry Soup

I have never found a sight
That's ever treated me so right
A place where friends come easily
And ever thought can be set free
Without hate or hurtfulness
These are things I do not miss
That other sites seem to share
No one on them wants to care
So I searched for days on end
Looking for a writer friend
To help keep my dreams alive
Showing me how I can thrive
Through the good reviews, not bad
This kind of faith I've never had
Till the miracle of Soup
Became my new family group
Teaching me I can believe
In my talents and succeed

Many new friends found their way
Into my heart where they will stay
To become the family I need most
With each and every single post
Stronger bonds are forming now
I do not even know how
My life managed to exist
Till a precious sight like this

My world was conquered for the better 
Every word and every letter
From comments, hellos, and love
I'm surrounded with a hug
Made from hands of every color
I would not want any other
Group of caring and kind people
Helping me to really feel
The proudness that's coming out
Cause that's what writing is about

Many new friends found their way
Into my heart where they will stay
To become the family I need most
With each and every single post
Stronger bonds are forming now
I do not even know how
My life managed to exist
Till a precious sight like this

hey, so I see there was an original here. I will have to see the newer one again and see how much you changed it. I remember I really loved the other one's message. Way to take a poem and revise it!

Hello Robin. You pretty much captured the way a lot of us feel. What a blessing it is to be part of this family. Hearts can soar when given love and positive reinforcement. Some of the best poetry I've ever read is right hear in the Soup. Your poem is put together very well and flows warmly into the soul. Thanks. Robert
