The Craving For Soup

P eople from every corner of the world
O pen up to a wealth of wisdom and wit
E ach day a new gem is exhumed 
T racing our past and plotting our future
R acing thoughts on paper or computer screens
Y earning for more,

S oup in our lives, 
O verly addictive it sometimes does seem 
U nder the banner of
P oetry







2nd place

It can be addictive, Wilma, but I do love the way this site connects people internationally. I'd have never been introduced to your work without Poetry Soup. Best wishes in the contest! Love, Carolyn
