New Friends - Collaboration

I've been getting to know really well my new friend with so much to tell. We've got similar work and we share the same quirk: Our sore bodies are giving us hell! by Andrea Dietrich For her friendship I'm in her debt. Though I like Soup, it's not home yet. So with her kind words I feel like I'm heard And not a nobody poet. by Susan Burch

Hey, it's great that you and Susan have similar work -- teaching, I presume. But Susan is definitely not a "nobody poet." Hope she realizes how much we all enjoy her work. Great collaboration, Andrea and Susan. Best wishes in the contest! (And, no, I don't care how messy anyone else's house is. All is cool with friends' homes.) Love, Carolyn

What more could I ask for today? It is a beautiful day the sun shining and birds singing. I am reading your poetry in which you share a little of yourself maybe without even realizing it you have written from your soul. Thank you for sharing your wonderful poetry with us Andrea and Susan. Love, Carol

Nice collaboration with Ms. Burch! What type of work are you doing that results in a sore body? I work as an ESL instructor which does not cause any physical stress. I wish you well. Love Matthew Anish

Susan, noone is a nobody poet, though sometimes some do their best to make others feel that way, you will rarely(if ever) find that here on the soup. Great job to both of you.

you are so right. She is in no way a nobody poet! and I hope she grows to feel less like that here in time! She is very clever!
