On Pondering Poetry

I do not wish to be pompous nor to define,
Whose quill is more divine!

Each poem is soul fruit from a unique experience.
That dances and whirls on the toes of time.

Someone's heart is in each poem.
Don't, I plea, let it stand alone!

It's light rays may brighten even the darkest soul.
So lift and elevate others, truly a most loving goal!

Hi Line! Thank you for visiting today...Almost midnight and love the amber flicker of my space heater. Yes, I was surprised to find me in the Anthology. Better to have you glad that I am in it and many others. I haven't even gone through it, Line. Too busy writing new poems daily. I am limited in the number of hours I spend here..my eyes can't take it, alas. Hope you are doing well. Cannot believe I have been here a little over two years! Blessings from CA! Hugs, Pangie xx

So true Panagiota, your heart and soul are in each poem you write, matters not what others think. Remember you write for thee not they. Tom. You and the doc still on the run lol?

Sorry for late reply, Tom. On your 'in joke"...we escaped the law! Disappointed not in myself! But in the low read count. Ah, well. Am gratefeful to all of you who actually took the time to comment. Meatloaf gets more reads and replies. Or activities in a water closet. I guess I do not belong on this planet. Pangie)))xxx

Pangie, if I could, I would nominate this for POTD or POTW for it defines what I believe are the objectives of Soup: 1) to write poems from our unique perspective ("soul fruit", I love it!) 2) to lighten the path of the darkened soul, and 3) to lift and elevate other writers, and all done with humility. I love your dancing line and everything else about this - going straight to my faves! Hugs ~ John
