My Fantasy Future

My Fantasy Future I wondered! Holding the warm, steaming mug of coffee in my hand. What surprises awaited me in Poetry Soup Land. I fantasized! A future with impressive poetry writes. But realized, that will never be, It’s not me, and does not sit right. I accepted! My simplicity and that works best for me. I took off that which shall never be, and took a walk to the shining sea! I realized. I was blessed each day of my long life. Most will never see my age, they think, being young are free from strife! I experienced. More sorrows, pain, joys than they will ever feel. And thus keep my poetry forever, quite simple and real. I lived. Through the histories they pen so eloquently about. I choose….. the present to pen and shout about. 5/5/2023

I wish I had penned this Poem, Pangie, I can relate to every line. Who else can we be but who we are? How fortunate are we to have lived for so long? I enjoyed reading this very much; thank you. Take care, Shirley

Amazingly accurate and balanced self-analysis there, P! I admire your ability to do this. (Couldn't come close, myself.) Excelsior! ~ Gershon

I'm with you, P! And I myself often write on Israel and AI. Time to focus on the dangers from the Chinese and Americanese as well! :) gw

Well, in all humility. This poem is me! What a terrific comment. I try to be more complex, witty or wise! It does not Work. Writing of things that effect out freedom does. Writing brutal truth does. Somebody better start writing about the killing of Israelis…The dangers of AI. The Chinese own far too much of USA .agricultural land ..I do recall the Shoah…I guess folks don’t realize they can be next.Why not? All the name calling and beatings of Conservatives as evil? Bad sign, my friend.

A wonderful write. Too bad we live so far apart. It would be nice if we/soupers could get together. Soups needs to have a convention every year or two. Have a blessed day/weekend..........

Paula, I would prefer to meet a poet in the flesh! I don’t know why PS does not have ZOOM meetings,and if shy, one need not be on camera. But at least voices could be heard.. a few could read their poems. I am sure as Gershon said,,an avatar vs reality might be a shock for many of us. ZoOM is a way to go. Why don’t poets Facebook one another…Travel is expensive. And I would be attacked or stabbed by some poets here. They loathe me.)) I value my life too much. I know you understand that. I saw 6 pages once of hare comments about me. Wow~ Paula. I trust you, for sure. But some vicious folks here. I learned to not trust. People are not real! Last week, I had three vicious attacks on me in open post. I should have sent them to Admin.If this happens to you, notify Admin. He’s still here but cannot comment to me! So, not all are nice as you. I think people are using poem genarators also. I prefer an honest poem. Love be yours. Pangie

Hey, Paula! About that Soup Convention: Aren't you a bit leary of seeing how, ahem, 'unusual' your fellow poets are? (I am, anyway). ~ Just sayin'

Each poet has their bit they write about. So many differing interests and certainly we get to know who they are if just a bit. I’m quite sure I’d be delighted to sit down with you over coffee, hear about your family, your ballet days, your sorrows, pains and joys.

I am more fun in real life than online. I love comedy but don’t write one liners ..I did stand up with no lines. Iam only good at being me. It would be fun to meet.to know about your joys and your accomplishments. I already know what a good person you are)); Pangie
