Notes About The Poem
7/12/2026 for Tribute- To A Poetrysoup Poet Who Has Passed Away Or A Missing Poet Poetry Contest sponsored by Constance La France

Tribute to Crystol Woods
Sorry to have worried anyone unnecessarily. To me, Crystol was missing since she hasn't been active in PoetrySoup for some time but was probably doing fine. In fact, after posting this, a reliable source tells me that Crystol is Alive and Well!
"Lift open to hear The tinkling sound
Of a music box dancer going round and around"
~ from Music Box Dancer by Crystol Woods
Do you recall our poet, Crystol Woods?
I haven't seen her work in quite a while.
If you haven't read her, she deals the goods -
tears, laughter, sincerity and a smile.
About the same time, on Soup we started.
Her presence, known soon after she'd begun,
shined humanity. She was big-hearted.
Her creative contests were always fun.
She writes a good poem and a good song.
Will, one fine day, we be happy to find
that she has come back? And will it be long?
What kind of questions might come to her mind?
What color is the sky? Crystol, it's blue!
Your poems and words - Crystol, they're so true!
