Poetic Sensibility

I felt the need to say Thank you, To all P Soupers Who honoured me as the poet of the day It helped to blow away the blues When I read the fantastic news This honour meant more to me Than writing this poetry It made my heart aglow To think that people I don't know Read my simple observations And offer kind congratulations P S has been a boon to me Like an extended family Their encouragement and remarks Fire my brain and make it spark Which puts more ink in my pen So I may try again. To write another little rhyme Anytime. Thank you, everyone I am feeling overcome With emotion and glee For the honour you bestowed on me
