You Cross My Path

You cross my path 
With your sweet, cautious words
H e s i t a n t
Unpromising 
in every step 

But your smile leaves me 
breathless 
Your touch 
Whirlwinds me
Arrows my soul
Tears my heart open 


Will a new light ever get in?

Ren, Welcome to Poetry Soup. It will be a delight to read and become familiar with your poems in the future. As for now, I will greet you with the same smile others passed when I first joined the soup. Wishing you and you're poetry the best. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here STARTING with me- SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you wish. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND" Hugs* SKAT

Hi Skat, such a lovely note! Thank you! I'm happy to be here. New to this... Never joined a site before. I used to write in my first language, English is my second. So it's more challenging. But I like the challenge, and like poetry... I look forward to reading your poems. Hugz . Ren

Ren,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
