Poetry Soup
Online poetry site where we share our ink
Every member has a great love for poetry, and
Together we have formed this unique space
Ready to support each other with comments and blogs
Years have gone by like flowing tranquil water

Soothing poems posted calm our souls each day
On those days when the way is not easy, and
Unbelievable and amazing support comes to us unbidden
Please, one and all accept my forever gratitude

"Fill your page with the breathing of your heart."

A strong write and entry I read here Constance, All my best to you, and all that's yours.' I know I have posted writes that probably won't calm Our souls over the last year, yet the long Term view is what I am applying here; maybe I will be regarded better for it.? Who knows Though I am waiting for the Lords return at Some point.' Whether in this decade or Whenever.)

The spirit of our poetic community is beautifully encased in this lovely poem ! Here we are ready to support, encourage and help each other grow. During trials, we get instant relief by reading beautiful poetry and giving vent to our own pent up feelings . The fellowship we share here is immense . I concur with all your thoughts on Poetry Soup, dear Constance...!
