Soupers, Spice Up the Soup

Of course, the East Coast of our country's best to come from overseas...or here, from West. A place in New York's suburbs meets the test to plan a PoetrySoup meeting fest. What fun if we could join for a gabfest and see the faces of those poets blessed with talents, we all share and so attest in online comments pleasantly expressed. We'd each recite our verse from a contest; share words that come alive as they retest to stir emotions with nuances stressed through images portrayed with heartfelt zest. For evening, plan a show, fine food ingest; next day, perhaps to Poet's House suggest. A dream come true if this idea professed, becomes a working plan that is addressed!

Back with congratulations Sandra, a couple of tears ago my cousin in Ireland had this idea of holding a reunion and I got roped in to do a slideshow of old and new family pics and also to recite some poetry I had written. Also we had dancing and singing and it was a great success with about 82 attending, This year its in the UK in Stratford on Avon. It just takes one to start the ball rolling so hopefully it could happen, A P.S. Convention. Tom.
