Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

Soup Mail

I never know what fun I will have when I open my Soup Mail.
When I was young, it took a long time for a letter to arrive from
Canada or the Virgin Islands or Guam, but with Soup Mail here it
is in seconds. 
What a fantastic way to keep in touch with new friends,
and to find out things I wish I had always known, but never did.
I have had so many good wishes, friendly advice, and happy thoughts
from this quick and happy mail program.
I cannot believe I accidentally clicked on it one day, when I was
horsing around and discovered it.
Instant pen pals.
Sending happy thoughts.
Making me feel loved.
Thank you my friends.
I adore you and your kind words
both secretly through SoupMail and
in the comment lines.
Soup Mail.
I will always think
of you fondly, and with
the warmest of regards.
You are my new communication
method of choice, today.

Jesse Rowe September 7, 2018 at 7:42 PM What a pleasantly esoteric poem. Just for us! I enjoyed it. Caren Krutsinger September 8, 2018 at 7:39 AM Exactly for you, my new tribe. SMILE>

Andrea Dietrich September 7, 2018 at 5:30 PM It took me a while to catch on to it too. My first few months here were not easy!

Andrea Dietrich September 7, 2018 at 5:29 PM I really like it too, Caren. However, I don't like that you have to copy/paste to recall different things to reply to! And if you type too much (like i do) you have to separate into more than one email. You can Soup me any time you want!!

Tom Cunningham September 7, 2018 at 4:32 PM Yes, its a wonderful way to send private messages on here, it would be nice if you could attach pics etc like email. I see you're in the loop Caren. Tom
