A masochist plans his own burial
You'd think our man was malarial
  But a fallacy it is
  'Tis pain that is his

Wendy, , Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@

Hi there! Thanks for the welcome! I was directed here by a friend trying to help me with a 4 year writing block. I welcome critique, comment and reciprocal reading :) I have been a member and moderator of several different online communities since 1998 and also was an active open mic host for a while and active promoter of independent publishing. My genres are mostly poetry and fiction, but I enjoy poetry the most. As far as my skills go, I think that is relative to the reader. I look forward to reading and posting more.
