The Kitchen

Endless mountains now
reach for the sky.
Tis the season for it
so torrential downpours begin.

Rushing creeks form
and the deepest gorges overflow.
Waterfalls agitate the murky depths
and raise up whitest foam.

	A desolate land 
	destroyed by breakfast.

Hi Crystal, Welcome to Poetry Soup. It will be a delight to read and become familiar with your poems in the future. As for now, I will greet you with the same smile others passed when I first joined the soup. Wishing you and your poetry the best. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here STARTING with me- SKAT :) Drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you wish. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND" Hugs **YNR - SKAT**

'lo there, Skat, nice to meet you. I'm sure we'll be great friends here. I LOVE writing of all kinds, but poetry was my first love. I'd like to learn more about poetry and get my foot in the door, so to speak, in the publishing world. I hope someday to have not only single poems published, but all kinds of books and essays and EVERYTHING out there. So, tit for tat? A little something about yourself?

Crystal,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@"

Hi! Constructive criticism only helps one grow as a writer, so I am ALWAYS thankful for it. Feel free to comment anything you notice about my writing. I really appreciate the help. I believe the area I most need help in at the moment is in pegging a poem in the correct form it belongs in. I'll add a new one, please let me know if it's in the correct form?
