Long Live the Soup
Just received a message of love
From a dear sweet soul on the Soup
It blew me away, brought a tear to my eye
To feel such love, whatta a hoot
These friendships here are quite common
The Soup is a place of goodwill
Where all can express our deepest feelings
Where our dreams are all fulfilled
The day I joined, I had no idea
What was in store for this old codger
What a super delight it's turned out to be
Each day it's a real heart stopper
In my retirement years, it's a real blessing
To have such a great group of friends
To connect and know that love is waiting
What a great way my hours to spend
All I can say is, “Long live the Soup!”
May it flourish for many years to come
To know there are so many adorable people
It's the greatest feeling, bar none
