Welcome Back

(Dedication: For Demetrios Trifiatis) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I often wonder why Poets come and go; Change feels so strange But then again I salvage reasons; To fill the vacuum Some are more Deeply profound; Nice and polite Some we won't miss No matter what; Saltless salt! Yet cheer finds me In happy moods; My Greek friend's back So here I write In simple lines: "Welcome back!" Hope you will Spin your verses; Keep fond company Hope all is well In your affairs; Dear Demetrios It's been four months Since you've been gone; Even poesy misses you! Leon Enriquez 20 August 2014 Singapore

Allow me to echo your feelings Leon; Demi's departure left a gap on this site, but his return more than makes up for it. This is a lovely flowing write; enjoyable. // paul

My friend Leon, how noble of you to write this beautiful piece for me. It humbles me and makes me realize if friends like this exists it worth while coming back! Thank you so much!

Dear Demetrios: Your presence among the PoetrySoup community of poets brings a unique contribution. So, I am certainly not the only one who feels this way. Hope you will continue to share your writings and comments regularly. No need to thank me because I am happy that you're back. My best wishes, Leon.
