Premium MemberBooks And Readers Are Beautiful

I find in today's world,
books and readers are missing.
Where have the readers gone?
Why are books so unattractive?
Could it be the style of writing or even their covers?
Years ago many would share their books with friends,
telling them the book was a must read.
Does the book hold the reader,
or does the reader hold the book?
The style of

Premium MemberDo poets write what readers hear?

Poets have multiple aims, modes, reasons to write,
Which may match what readers want downright.

Some poets are simply lovers of words and language.
How they twist and turn, and meld on a page.

Some readers love the sound of words that beat,
A tune where rhyme and rhythm softly meet.

Some write to teach, profound knowledge to bestow,
They search for

Dear readers

Dear readers
Let’s dig in to the business of writing 
Many are lies peddled by people who come in your life
Some simply because your judgement is different from there’s 
Others simply because you showed no effort in a situation but you overcome or succeeded 
Others simply hate you for no reason at all
This has lead to

Escapism For the readers

Escapism – For the readers.

(A lone voice whispers)

Hey you,

Reading this
From way beyond the reach

Of the Great Abyss 

I, Thomas, have a question or two 

Would you blindly follow me if I lit a red candle

In this final odyssey home

To be rescued 
And finally bare your soul

Together with mine
And all you can handle

Before the Sacred Salt

Escapism for the readers


(A lone voice whispers)


Within this deep clearing, a mystical sanctuary surrounded by the long trees of Time's perpetual symphonies, we meet.



Within this clearing, sheltered from Storms



Inside this sacred sanctuary, within this journey



A place beyond the Silence of Humanities long reach



A secret place where the bright blue Sky holds back the shadows of conflict and pains

Premium MemberNot All Readers

The author’s imagination floats out of a book
Some readers are able to tether a bit of it
Maybe a word or a phrase
Others cannot adapt, not understanding

Flexible readers embellish the story
Adding flares and sparkles as they read
Intelligent readers visualize a bit more
The uninterested cannot concentrate at all.

I can be a good reader or a bad reader.
I

To My Ignored Admiring Readers

It hurts to note one's congrat has been ignored.
He later wakes up, who has long snored.
Fresh call for fresh congrat fingers are bored;
The pain from previous neglect had hit cord!

My Apology: Admiring Reader.
Don't quit your labour of being my feeder,
I love you only less than my late mum,
Last child still dealing with the toughest gum

And

Mere Readers, Repeaters Are We

Mere readers and writers we are,
Tell me, who’s found a new letter?

Seers as if of same stars in sky,
As same water’s recycled nigh,
Vibes of the same waves on us vie.

To learn same things we’ve strived so far,
Mere readers and writers we are.

A few letters, world of words vast,
Same old flag we flutter half-mast,
In palm whole

Six Graves

The old cemetery road, I took a tour
After the sun has rested
Six graves I saw
Six graves I counted

Three for the fighters
Two for the healers
One for the peacemaker
None for my reader's

Bronze for the fighters
Silver for the healers
Gold for the peacemaker
None for my reader's

Sleep well fighters
Sleep well healers
Sleep well peacemaker
Read on, dear reader's

[Quite possibly the most juvenile gag I’ve
ever posted on Soup. In my defence, I was 
probably twelve when I first heard it.]

Miracle Moments and Readers

I
Some writers are blessed readers
The only way I know, although
They may comment occasionally
Their words go deeper, with wider flow
Unleashing moments when we commune
We use different words with the same spirit-tune

II
I will err, not honor, if I raise some apart
YOU are too many to mention, may miracles
Greater than moments attend your living art 
As I thank
