Poetry Soup Submission

Once I’ve begun, soon I find I will lose a line Gotta write it all down Before it leaves my head Making each verse fit for a king Embracing each word As a long lost friend Some I keep Others are tossed Eventually, all my I’s are dotted And T’s are crossed My submission is ready to be added online But my broken IPad screen Won’t allow me to accomplish Much of anything Typing through the shards of glass The flashing red cursor awaits my final task I press ENTER and await any and all responses The kind expressions bestowed upon me By those who chose to spend several Moments of their day to read my work I THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart !

Hi Kim! I am one of those who write poetry every day, but only post once in a while. I am sort of fussy, and will only share when I persuade myself that what I have on offer is good enough!:) Thus, I am not surprised that you also take your time to 'trim' and edit before pressing 'enter'. Best regards // paul
