Edward Ebbs Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

Why I Am Here At Poetry Soup

I am here
at Poetry Soup
for balance
it’s a place
to organize
inner thoughts
visualizing life
learning from others
gifts they share
part of themselves 
with different
perspectives
teaching something
about ourselves
Poetry Soup
calms my soul
enabling
those feelings 
random thoughts
an outlet
for expression
expressions
of my life
