Playtime At the Soup!

where I play
its safe to say

my friends they really care!

I try new forms
reveal my storms

they catch me when I err!

don't want to gush!
words turn to mush!

I even stretch despair!

when games get tough
I mean really rough

they hold me with their cheer!

their love allows
my muse to rouse

and cast out any fear!

as you can see
I quite agree!

I like to play right here!
