Dear Poetry Soup connoisseurs, and courageous ones sharing and learning There are those of you leaving me breathless with your best, I must confess Those vocabs astounds me to point of fixation, research, memorization Look at one poet's, "serendipitous" I now know they're lover of words without obsession Dear me, I arrived at Soup, hoping my hobby would bud, but it blossomed There are countless connoisseurs I wish to thank; some have graced us with contest Now and then I think of joining them, but it's yet spring of my blossoming My name is Iris, and there'll be more thoughts on us soupers. *

You add your own poetic flavor to the Soup, Iris ... the great thing about this community is the waves of inspiration and support I feel from so many great poets here. Keep being yourself and continuing to grow, poetess! :)

Hi Iris! I am glad that you not only formed a bud, but also blossomed. This is a fabulous site where blossom can turn to fruit...fruit that can be shared with others. There is only one drawback...time! ~ Keep your pen active:) Regards // paul

Oh Iris this is a lovely poem that I can relate to so much especially the 5th stanza - it took me a month to pluck up courage to join and I too am blossoming - from a complete beginner I have written over 1000 poems since Feb 2014 - it a bit of an addiction... but I can't think of a more rewarding one lol:-) hugs Jan xx7

I am working on a book of my humourous poems Iris - I would never ever have dreamed of it but now I am determined to do it .. for one reason - to say 'I DID IT':-) hugs Jan xx

Dear Jan, I recall you being first to welcome me to PS with much encouragement. I thank you for any criticism; notice your tack and diplomacy, and wittiness, and zero tolerance for gooble garb. Wow! a thousand poems and still counting. This calls for a book, and that's final.
