A To P Soup

This was inspired by
Poet and Friend
Tim Smith
With his most recent piece
"Where Is Casarah"

"Call it what you want"
        I call it
        A to P Soup

Looking through the alphabet 
My smile begins to droop 
Although I see most of them
Some are missing in my soup

Where's the A, for Andy
Or the S for stands for Skat
And the C that's for Casarah
Where the 'Heck' could they be at

Remember, all my lost ones,
I'm an ardent fan
And the next time, that I'm making soup
I want you in the can

Good question, Jerry. People are people and will do what they need to do, they have an obligation to themselves and we should always honor that. We should always cherish the time that we have to spend with someone. Miss them of course but give them their freedom. The can of soup is constantly changing. Sip it and be happy. Bless you, my friend....... Robert.
