One Year With Poetry Soup

Within the shortest possible time
You made me better 
Without prior knowledge of my arrival 
You welcomed me warmly 

Without knowing me
You kept encouraging me 
Each step was made solid by your kind comments 
And it's a year with poetry soup 
And it has been awesome! 

Friends far away, who have made their impacts felt 
I won't mention names 
For I can't mention all 
But you know your contributions 
Towards every gem I put out 
Your lovely words kept me going 
To friends far away,  that have become family 
I say a big Thank you!

I became very emotional reading through these lines, Abosede. They are coming directly from the heart. As one big united family pregnant with lines, we give birth to poems. Our reasons for joy are abundant. God bless you my friend, God bless this community!
