Raven Calls

Death calls in the mist
Carnal clouds gather above....
In flight soaring high
Guardians of the dark side
To enhance her arousal.

thank goodness I finally found one. Harry, I am not happy at ALL with this new change at Soup. I think the staff does not care about folks like me , who like to see older poems of friends. they have made it very difficult for me to move easily thru your back poems. I have to go back to your first page and keep clicking on the older page where I last saw a poem since I cannot use the backwards arrow. why the heck do some of the Soupers think this is "improvement"?? Are they crazy???

I had only read a couple of the poems and wanted so badly to enter but...too many things were going on and didn't get to. I knew Constance would have a time selecting her winners. There is a long list of winners here. You should be so proud of your winning poem congratulations Harry. Love, Carol

I admire the brevity of your description harry. That picture has been interpreted many ways and most of the verses are very long but you did a great job in a short form. Best to you, Diane
