Inspiration should come from our own minds
Many poets are cheating, shame on them
AI is killing creativity!
Galling when people accept the glory ~
It's obvious a chatbot's written it!
No need to plagiarise, sadly some do
All of us have brain cells, put them to use!
Themes like nature are a good place to start
I get inspired by beauty around me
Often contest prompts entice folk to write
Now pick up your pen and write from the heart

Poetry Soup, a forum international, a celebration
Of intellectual curiosity and creative exploration,
Embellishing soul’s heartfelt musings, amplifying
Themes, resonating elegantly in forms and diction;
Rhythmic and meaningful linguistic brushstrokes
Yearning to forge missives hearts’ passions invoke;
Symphonic expressions of simile, and metaphors,
Ornate elucidations literary exultations compose;
Ubiquitous presence in poetic assembly of world,
Precious garden for nurturing blossoming words.

Jubilations! Acrostic joy!
Underestimated a poems ploy.
No doubt many poets enjoy.
Exciting this poetic toy.
Time to their brains employ.
Explaining, trying not to annoy.
Easy, an acrostic, a horse of Troy.
Numerous themes, don't be coy.
Themes so many, oh boy, oh boy.
Hope my choice you will enjoy!
