I Love Small Boxed Faces
Soupers often engage in emotional ways.
There can be depth in what two might exchange.
When someone leaves our shared Soup domain,
their diminished light is a missed, valued sight.
Some remarks feel like word-shaped embraces
and time together often leaves valued traces.
Is is not odd, just plain strange, as well as an ache
that Soup relationships are both

May You Know That You Are Valued
Inspired by a moving storyline in a show.
May you know that you are valued
By Michelle Morris
15/06/2023
I wanted to pass on something
From my childhood memories
But all that I had left
Was sad feelings and broken dreams
Everything that I loved
Was destroyed or tossed away
Burned bridges and toys
Scorched emotions and betrayal
So, what do I have to

He wasn’t a bump on a log.
He was my protector and friend,
My love for him will never end.
Everyone in the neighborhood,
adored him too, he was good.
I cried when he got

A Cheap Watch and a Cake
You sell yourself for money
Hour lunch two coffee breaks
To punch a card at 5pm
For a cheap watch and a cake
You live on autopilot
A zombie for the pay
Make copies, staple papers
Day, after day, after day
You think you're irreplaceable
Never make it without you
But if you dropped dead on the floor
They'd step right over you
And

Life's Valued Treasures
Life's valued treasures, I hold most dear,
the ones that dwell deep within my heart.
There's a special memory from younger days
that I will share with you, and fondly impart.
When I think as far back as I can, I remember,
there was only one special thing I ever wanted ~
A big white horse, with flowing mane and tail.
I

A Valued Gift
Since World War II, I’ve traveled the world,
Seeing many countries both near and far.
I started in the States where my eyes were unfurled,
Being kept in pockets and in many a jar.
Right off the press, I started out crisp and new.
I was cut from the others and soon put into play.
After the War, I became one

'valued Grace'
I did not know where I would end up
This journey has been one of self-discovery
One of self-love
A journey where the obstacles
That seemed insurmountable
Became stepping stones
I prayed for things I didn't need
Only to discover they weren't meant for me
I get to appreciate the little things
Instead of waiting on the big

Valued Riches Part 2
From rags to riches come money and “*****es”, thus leaving values buried in the past.
The tombstone reads “there lies integrity and morals”, they all tend to die around the same
fiscal year; tax season. Greetings! To big checks with no longevity. We buy new shoes,
a new purse, rocks and rings. Bills are overdue, guess

Valued Riches Part 1
Greed is gold compounded together to make slaves out of souls. What a surprising use of an
element. Charted to appeal, to tear down human inhibition. We throw money in wells wishing
for more; an industrious scheme, selling misty water-colored dreams giving our fantasies life.
But they die shortly after when realizing you’re not born

Valued Friends
Of the ones not known
Dedication starts
Those who ask nothing
Though do very much
Just the small details
Compassionate
So devoted
In general
Just living life
Stepping up
One favor
With no catch
These are
Valued
Friends

Valued Treasures
The things in life that mean the most,
Can’t be bought or sold, I boast.
Freely given from ones heart,
Is what sets these gifts apart.
Love and kindness can’t be bought,
These valued treasures are widely sought.
Giving of yourself only helps you grow,
It’s God’s intention don’t you know?
Be a friend to those in need,
Don’t let your heart be filled
