Not In Quiet Slumber

Not in quiet slumber spend time alone Or in rich places with societies' Cream of the crop, but in reading tone Upon tone of richness; varieties Poetry penned for fun among poet friends That soupy mixture of different beans, Peas, corn, carrots, onions; those soupers tend To bless, nourish, mend by gleans Gleaning of rich blessings from their humor Political astuteness, knowledge, love Those that describe like gifted costumer Whose costumes they talentedly wove Poetry soup gathering place to uplift Like minds, rich with societies' gifts In honor of Carol Brown's contest Written by: Sara Kendrick Date written and posted: January 14, 2012
