Moods Ebb and Flow
One thing I've learned here on the Soup
The moods of the site ebb and flow
Depending on so many unknown factors
It can be fast and it can be slow
Response to our poems surely won't always
Predict the popularity of the piece
A great title, as I've suggested many times
Is key for the success of your release
I'm no expert but been a member since 2012
I've noticed some repetitive patterns
Limericks and other stuff can get attention
But simple rhymes it's praise they do earn
So what I have found since the beginning
To get read it helps to add humour
No need for words that no one understands
That's always been just a rumour
So simplicity rules and does every time
Main goal is to be understood
Communication is the word I'm looking for
In this poetry neighbourhood
