Wondrous Words From Gifted Pens

Wondrous Words From Gifted Pens Wondrous words flow from gifted pen beautiful gifts from poetic hearts A dear wish for such to never end generous blessings that such words impart A moment, a prayer to cast forth joy a great crusade to help one and all A pen well inked and ready to employ thoughts of the soul both big and small Poets astound and live, live to write a lazy pen they must so often fight Such is the trials of generous offers drawn from spirits in poetic coffers! Inspiration , heart , reason and rhyme Often fight the brevity of needed time! Robert J. Lindley 06-29-2014 A humble tribute to wonderful poets here and everywhere! I am very pleased to offer this tribute to all poets and dedicate it to four very special friends I have made here that have so greatly helped and inspired me here! Elly Wouterse, Peter and Vera Duggan and Carolyn Devonshire..... a special thanks and gift.

This is a wonderful tribute to the poets that give so much in their poetry. There are many here at the Soup that have done that. You are among them, my friend. Thanks for your heartfelt words..... Robert.

Dear Robert, This is a wonderful sonnet that describes so well the qualities of many Soup poets. I especially enjoyed the last two lines: Poets consider "inspiration, heart, reason and rhyme" every day. It's amazing how many poems some can write in a single day. Thank you for including me among your special friends. You surely give many of us inspiration too, so right back at you, Hon! Love, Carolyn
