poetry soup
Soup smelling sweet and sour
The pot brims with vegetables
Bursting with colors like a flower
Some will like it and some won’t
But the chef keeps cooking
he don’t care no he don’t
Plink
plank
plonk
The words fill the bowl
the dinner bell goes honk
Some spit out the soup,
disgusted and unhappy
They feel it is too boring or sappy
Some love the taste
it is just right
They slurp down the poetry
in just a bite
