Poetry Soup

P erhaps you need to visit sometime
O ver the internet for a rhyme
E ven if you stay for just awhile
T ry writing verse to beguile
R ather than to sit and twiddle thumbs
Y earning for stardom, that someday comes

S ubmit words with meaning that sings
O pen your troubled heart and fly with wings
U nfold your wisdom you possess
P ost your work online, seek success
