Poetry Soup

I dip my spoon into poetry soup,
never knowing what I will find,
a cute haiku or riveting rhyme,
something surely to thrill my mind.
Friendly people, willing to praise,
even the poorest lines I write,
some fresh friends to chat these days,
more to add here, I think I might.
It’s not as if I love each poem,
but there’s always something to chew,
so through the meal I eagerly comb,
for offerings both lively and new.

Can so relate to this poem - always something different to read - you dive in when you find one you like. Happy reading and writing Jan x

Well expressed. To me it's like vegetable soup...each spoon that comes up contains something different in sight and taste. // paul
