Dear Warren, your tribute to the deceased poets of Poetry Soup is truly touching. Your questions are poignant and your last line is tenderly expressed for a moving finale. Their poetic legacy lives on through their own poems and through beautiful poems like "Lost Poets". Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

The big question...where do all the poets go, and what great poetry are we missing? Kind of like musicians when they leave this world too soon. Imagine all the great music that could have been! Nice write, Warren. Charlie
