Gershon Wolf Poet Name

Notes About The Poem

I was ready to leave Poetry Soup early on, when one day I saw that Line had commented on every one of the 25 poems that I had posted.  Any progress I've made since then I really owe directly to her angelic assitance...

Tribute To a Classy Lady

L   ooked to help this brand-new poet**
I    nterested in his every write
N   ever too busy to comment
E   ncouraged him by day and by night...

G   rew a veritable garden of friends
A   s she expanded her own horizons
U   plifting are the poems she's penned...
T   oday, this wonderful woman and wife's
H   usband is battling for his very life
I    t's incumbent upon us now to
E   ncourage, to support this classy lady:
R   each out with your love; it's the least we can do



** and so many others
