Just think, Caren. Without Poetry Soup I might never have met you, so that alone is a tremendous blessing to me.

Well said, Milton! My favorite thing about PoetrySoup is being able to connect to people in places I’ve never been or may never get to again. What a treat!

That's exactly how I feel, Ilene. There are plenty of poetry sites, but I think Poetry Soup is the best when it comes to making friendships and sharing.
