Why I Love It Here

It happened fast, oh yes it did
The time here wasn’t long
But I made friends who I admire
With feelings oh so strong

Each day I wake, with hopes to see
All the friends that I have made
I want to hear all of their reviews
And read what they have to say

I want to absorb any meaning
That they may post in verse
I want to laugh if they joke
For all their words, I thirst

I want to be there for them too
To teach and maybe inspire
If I can share something I know
Then of writing, I’ll ever tire.

I love to read and then review.
I love to write mine too.
But most of all, I love it here
Because of you and you and you and you.
