Notes About The Poem

A PoetrySoup poem of the day on 3rd August 2024

Poet POTD

I'm a flower tickler
with a flower tickler's thumb
like my dog before me
although he's more of a philanthropist
than a poet, but, like him, I too bark
my greenery of colours when needed
and tickle flowers

To the powers that be at PoetrySoup, you've assigned another poet's name to my poem in the listing below! Shouldn't it be my name? It is my poem after all. Just a thought
