What I Love Most About Poetrysoup

What do I Love Most about PoetrySoup? Is it posting my poems so people can read? Is it reading others poems— An intellectual feed? I think it’s the kindness Of the people who write. So generous with their comments; Their encouragement and insight. Yes, it’s really the folk Who take time to share, The experiences they’ve gleaned, From just being here. Minds that are gathered With a similar, poetic interest; Sharing the beauty of words That each holds closest. PoetrySoup is a pleasure To visit each day; To post a few more poems And see what friends say. The emails and comments Make it all meaningful. I love the interaction of others, Who are so thankful and cheerful. Written by Maureen LeFanue For Carol Brown’s Contest What I Love Most About PoetrySoup, 10 January 2012

Yes indeed it is so encouraging to be able to communicate with others of like mind. To be able to share and read what others have written and learn from each other. A fine tribute to our friennds here on Soup. As for forms. I'm afraid I know little about that either. I was told I write in quatrains and yes I think that means four balanced lines no matter how long the poem may be. Thanks so much and it's great to meet you. God Bless, JB
