My Sweetest Thank You and My Warmest Hug

To those poets who guided me along that long, arduous road to success: I sincerely give them my sweetest " Thank you " and my warmest hug. I can mention many names: Carrie Richards, Laura Mckenzie, Carolyn Devonshire Cathy Lindsey, Debbie Guzzi, Nette Oncloud, Linda-Marie,Harry Horseman, Rick Parise, Andrea Dietrich,Carol Brown,John Freedman,Connie Marcum Wong,Andersen Anne Lise, John J. Falotico, Destroyer Poet, Vienna Bombardieri and Tracie Indigo Dreamweaver. I would love to see those names in the Poetry Soup Hall Of Fame; they have shown devotion and ambition through their brilliant poetry, and the entire world should recognize them for their talent and ability, but if the literati ignored their contributions, it would be more than shame. I praise these gladiators of literature whose sharp swords are words for thought; I laud their achievements and shout their names with a pride never heard, to let everyone know how great and invincible they are in the battlefield... and they'll go forward holding the torch of inspiration until its flame will burn out.
