Notes About The Poem
9/2/2024 for Soupers Unite and Write! Poetry Contest sponsored by Benjamin Bartley
Souperb Soup
Let's toss some poets into a soup like a gumbo
to make a concoction of proportions quite jumbo,
with a variety of flavors, so delicious,
yet, for our hearts, minds, and spirits, highly nutritious.
Let's call this exotic concoction, PoetrySoup,
and then welcome that ridiculous Dave Crandall dupe,
with his oddball poems of distaste and aberrance,
making him grateful for everyone's forbearance.
Like a fly, I do the backstroke in this soup as I read
poems that sow beauty and happiness's seed;
or, snorkeling, I think hard as I dive down deep,
and devour a profound poem before I sleep.
