Notes About The Poem

Michelle, an appreciative poet
Decided to take time to show it.
Wrote a poem to her pals,
To both guys and gals-
She was always nice, now we all know it.

I wrote this limerick for our international poet friend, Michelle Faulkner.  She wrote a lovely poem today entitled "Poetry Soup Pals" as her thank you to all who have provided her encouragement and support.  The last line of Michelle's poem reads:

"For all friends, old and new, I just want to say thank you
For re-igniting my passion for poetry, anew-"

Thank you, Michelle, for the kind encouragement and support that you give us!  Cheers!

Limerick For Michelle

To both guys and gals-
She was always nice, now we all know it.

Man, I was going to thank her, but now it would be a competition and you have already won, Mark. So I will just bow out gracefully and say "thank you!" from the rest of us.
