Unsung Poems

Soup has given me a voice
To spread my long-time works
Kept in the dust for years
Can't believe through soup you'll hear

I've found strength through this home
Inspired me to do better everyday
All my life I've been writing unsung poems
But this time they are now beheld

I want the world to see
The works I create
For I know I will touch other's lives
Inspire them and make them feel not alone.

very nice, Hansteven. Did you enter it in that one contest before it closed out? I think it really works for the theme of why you are here at PoetrySoup.
