Wish I had known you better- friend; my time is limited on Soup. With writing only- I attend; But, now I share this with your group. My time is limited on Soup. With your last theme- could not compose. But, now I share this with your group using a special form you chose. With your last theme- could not compose. Now, such great poems, I have read- using a special form you chose, I see the beauty your words spread. Now, such great poems, I have read; you shared your kind and gentle heart. I see the beauty your words spread- so unexpected- you did part. You shared your kind and gentle heart; With writing only, I attend. So unexpected- you did part; wish I had known you better- friend. January 3, 2023 Contest: In Honor Of Milt- An Un-Contest Poetry Contest Sponsor: Andrea Dietrich I missed writing for Milt's last contest: "Pantoum On Writing Poetry" - 5 Stanzas But, I wrote it now as a tribute to him.

that was such a nice idea, doing his unfinished contest using your own pantoum for him. I will never know if he would have liked my pantoum as a winner. He surely would have loved this one.
