To All the Mean Soup Babies You Know Who You Are

Its not about how good you are its all about being liked 
give them an inch of gossip watch how they get psyched
sticking together like a band of thieves ignoring the rest,  
they believe what they hear and never put it to the test;

Its not about how kind you are if they are jealous green,  
they'll cut you up to size just about their size, its mean 
contests oh contests, I won't say much upon that subject 
I have had my good share of "no can do" constant rejects 

I got a private mail one day, " hurry fix your poem please"
only to find out it was already judged, and it was just a tease  
I got another private mail, " too bad you didn't make it , dear"  
I didn't hold my breath darling, your next contest I won't smear 

When it comes to making friends on site I only have a very few 
its a big site and if I miss you, its never intentional, the slue    
if you don't like me well there is nothing I can do, "soup babies", 
I'm a lover not a fighter, I don't bite and I don't have rabies...


Written by:  ?    If you want to know,  take the time to get to know,

Dear sweet Mystic Rose Rose, I have no idea who you are referring to, and I have never experienced such treatment, but I am sick about it happening to you. If someone did that to me, I would tell them to...well, you know what I mean. You have been so sweet to me, and I appreciate you and your work immensely. Thanks for letting all of us know about this foolishness!

I have decided to ignore about five poets who are worthless yet have friends who give them a great comment. It's the only way to get noticed. Ignore them.

Basically that is what I've been doing, I value myself far too much to allow someone to make me feel less then I am. Thank you for your support.

Public forums will inevitably have a motley crowd, shrug and move on, continue to sing your love song

Dear Line, I agree, we live in difficult times and my priorities have changed drastically. All that matters is my family, friends, and life itself. Glad you read my poem, sending you love and light always, xo

I don't mean to single anyone. Just sharing my hurt feelings. We should never judge another by believing gossip. Glad you stopped by. Have a great day :)

Wow Wow Wow sweet Rose! How you speak my very soul and attitude! That's who we are and how we behave.. brimmed with Love and Light.. We are wealthy, true, pure and at the same time light like feathers.. our souls ever soaring with beauty.. no grudge, no hate, no evil in the heart that would weight down our souls.. we ever striving to get to know deeply who we are and we should be.. great read and wonderful rendition of your Beauty! My warmest wishes. Regards and blessings. Love and hugs.
