SOUPER DOUPER

Writing poetry keeps me calm.
Poems I kept behind a dam.
Released, cascading, frollicking forth.
Encouraging comments give me worth.
Empowered, enabled I am fit to burst.
Challenged, stimulated, embraced.
By like minded folk I am encased.
Such a gift to have been given.
To find this Poetrysoup heaven.

Barry Stebbings Date: 6/23/2016 7:30:00 AM Yes, Jean. It is really good to be able to write for people who are appreciative of poetry. Not saying that all my poetry is good. Of all the art forms, poetry seems to be the least appreciated. Barry. Login to Reply Jean Murray Date: 6/23/2016 10:39:00 AM True Barry. When in fact, it's like rhythm. Not everyone has it!
