Window of Hope

Lo and behold, poetry Soup
It has caught me by the hoop!
It has sundered all the blinds
We can now share our minds.

From this place so far away
I now no longer feel astray.
Soup has built me a cosy home
I which I am pretty welcome.

I used to fish in the thick murk
Where no fish would dare lurk
I've now sate my hungry wish
By bagging this desired dish!

To quickly sign an open treaty
That propels afar one's ditty
Is walking when I used to crawl-
Sure thrall to a suppressed soul.

I might be a reptile cool or cold
Please allow me in Soup's fold
With friendship's lasting mark
Ignited by Poetry's fiery spark!
