Our First Annual Poetrysoup Convention- Vegas Style

In Las Vegas is where we will be for the night life is something to see. We can take in a show and then let the wine flow; but the daytime is for poetry! Any member of Poetry Soup may attend. Let me give you the scoop: on the first day at noon we will gather and swoon at the readings of all in our group. Where we meet, it will be like a fair with food and fun, seeing who’s there with our very own eyes, checking out gals and guys. Who’s got flair, and who’s still got their hair? On a weekend we’ll do this in fall, reading fave poems inside a huge hall. One poem each; make it short or we’ll have to abort! Then we’ll mingle and dance. Have a ball! March 10, 2019

A gathering like this would be so much fun, Andrea. Guess we'd have to wear name tags if there's a good turnout. Enjoyed the humor, especially the part about still having hair. :) Wouldn't it be great if we all got to know each other? It would help build the community here. Great entry for Line's contest! Hugs, Carolyn

Only if they want. Personally, I think that part is boring!

Sounds delightful, however, I have asthma and cannot breathe the Las Vegas air. I used to live there, it is where I developed asthma. Love it for the rest of you. Lovely take on the contest, my friend.

I never got to see shows there. Only just really quick drive-bys. I always really wanted to spend a good weekend there.
