Poetry Soup

Poets here have got a lot
Of soups that they can sup:
Elegy and etheree, epulaeryu served hot;
Tanka, haiku, dodoitsu -Asian broths served in a cup.
Rhyme here is a regular favor.
Free verse also we can savor.

Sonnet is a classic some serve up with ease
On our menu, many items every day are shown.
Using creativity, we like to tweak our recipes.
Please try our soups; better yet, cook some up of your own!

Benjamin Bartley Date: 9/4/2024 6:46:00 AM I placed you in my contest anyway. It is really good. You had potential to win if I hadn't read it on POTD. I like my contestants to remain anonymous before I judge them. It was my first contest as host so I hope you're not too disappointed. Honestly, they were all so good, it was hard to judge. Congratulations. And thank you for entering my contest and as always, thanks for sharing.

ANyway, I think we can always guess certain poets by the style they use, so the contests do not always end up being so anonymous as we would like them to be. Glad to place anywhere on your list. There were many great poems entered in your contest.

Lin Lane Date: 6/4/2024 9:20:00 AM Some days the soup is better than others. I don't like peppery soup, nor bitter. Those ingredients should be tossed out of the kitchen. Congratulations on your potd, Andrea. Login to Reply
