Come in from the cold and thaw in my home, which is my two arms. Just let me hold you so tight as you sleep. I'll strike a match and light a spark that starts a flame deep in your soul. Please, let me be your light in the dark. Come in from the... cold. Date submitted: 06/15/2020

Dear Edward, thank you.. I am humbled and incredibly honored by the kind generous warmth of your words. I am but one ingredient that adds spice to the hearty pot of Poetry Soup. Your special poetic spice adds a fine flavor all its own, that without which, the flavor of the Soup would be as dull as gruel. Your outstanding poetry outshines the noonday sun my friend.
