Thank You


"To every thing there is a season,
and a time to every purpose
under the heaven:"  Eccl. 3:1

I don't rightly know.
I might have said it before.
But it might be time for more.
Saying 'thank you' is never a chore.

Anyway, I am amazed by you.
I am encouraged by you.
I am enriched by you.
I am inspired by you.
I am enabled by you.

When I needed a place
To post my muse,
You were there.
And not once did you refuse
To post my expressions.
You became a real blessing.

I never knew there was such
A haven of rest like you;
Such a 'sponging place' to draw
From me my very best.

I believe that God is using you
To aid me in discovering me;
To complete my life's puzzle,
Little by little, piece by piece;
To provide the assist I dearly
Needed to complete my purpose.

To Poetry Soup and my fellow soupers,
'Thank you' for being such real troopers.

Curtis, it's a pleasure to befriend kind people like you. Absorbing your kindness to others should make all of us on the site want to be more patient and giving as you have been.
