Welcome to my bio! I love poetry, of course, and enjoy interacting with other Soupers. I am originally from Upstate New York, travelled with the U.S. Navy and ended up in the Southern United States.
Here is Milton's winning poem. To see the original format go to his page. My heart weeps. Rest in peace, Milton.
Making my way from dot to dot A squirrel, a bunny, a kangaroo Interested in seeing what I’ve got? I won’t know until it’s through. A squirrel, a bunny, a kangaroo A galaxy of stars up in heaven, I won’t know until it's through I’ve passed five, six, and seven. A galaxy of stars up in heaven Or, perhaps, a fairy all in pink I’ve passed nine, ten, and eleven Glad I’ve pencil, not indelible ink! Or, perhaps, a fairy all in pink When I have colored what I drew Glad I’ve pencil, not indelible ink I won’t know until I get to twenty-two. When I have colored what I drew Interested in seeing what I’ve got? I won’t know until I get to twenty-two, Making my way from dot to dot.
