Notes About The Poem

For Heros, Souper Contrast Sponsored by Benjamin Bartley 2024

I had so much fun writing about my friends on PS with the Limerick contest, I thought I'd give it another go with this one! *(Although these are not Limericks)

I do hope these will be taken light heartedly and with a grin! My intentions are to edify and have fun, not to hurt anyones feelings or be offensive.

Please, let me know if I have unintentionally offended and I will do my best to correct it. Thank you all for being so SOUPER!!! XOXO

Crystol, I am honored that you included me in your fun rhyming set. I love your title for me Pretty Prosey. It's strange because one of my chapbooks from 15 years ago and no longer in print was called called Prosies! The cover had pretty flowers all around the title and it contained my "free verse" written prose style. Thanks so much. I enjoyed reading your verses on all of us in your set. This one will be a winner for sure. I bet we will all be faving it.

Dear crystol, you are here i believe on soup to sprinkle love and light upon so many so selflessly, and did you know my name is actually “ theempressofink” on insta and other platforms , not sure why it doesnt show like that on soup. And i smiled. “The ruler of written word” made me laugh. Haha. I wish. But good one. I appreciate your kindness. Im truly honored and humbled! A fave this is for me! Thank you again! Best wishes in the contest too, sending you light always
