Happy Souper Tuesday
To my buddies on the Soup!
Despite our different backgrounds

We put our thoughts in writing
Hoping other souls will read,
Acknowledgement the one reward

It’s dry and dusty, cobwebbed.
So afraid to be, alone in the dark,
“Who am I,” is my cry.

Then Trixie’s best friend comes along,*
like a cowgirl set out on a romantic adventure.

A Poetry Souper, seeing bright stars,
Grabbed his PC and headed for Mars.
He’d make some dimes by writing rhymes,
Selling them to the New Mars Times.
 
Traveling through the ethereal blue,
With revved up rockets, his fervor grew.
Orbiting the moon to pick up speed,
He’d bust his buttons for...

A haven where wordsmiths congregate to recoup
Some sense of sanity in a world filled with grief
