Rhyming In a Cup of Soup

A poets paradise to share words and dreams...
Where friendships blossomed as smiles beamed...

A place to come in from the rain and always feel the sun...
Where love affairs of lines connect bound by none...

From one side of the world to the other we all touch...
A site built with passion for a poet who has grown so much...

I thank you Team Poetry Soup for a place for me to play...
Where I can write of love and life with my own rhyming way...

I enjoy reading couplets though I've only written a few. This one has good rhythm too, which makes for an even more enjoyable read. I'm enjoying my soup experience...some great poets and a lovely welcome I've received. My heart grows larger for the members of this site daily. Best of luck with the contest !! God bless.

And, Michael, if I my add, your "own rhyming way" is quite a talented one. Terrific couplet for Carol's contest and I echo the sentiment. PS has been a great find for me and has not only provided a place for me to share my poetry, but has added infinite fodder to grow from and to encourage me to do more and do better. Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.
