If MPS poets met
Face to face in 1 big place
Would all be spouting poetry?
Or do so case by case?
Poet T.15 rushed in late
With a ciao and hugs all round
She'd followed brown eyed hero
Through Italy, town by town
k the np was coming too
The men were up and aglow
Would she wear leathers with whip?
No! Dragging all 3 kids in tow
j56 brought cat, dog, chicken
R asked how to rhyme this 'group'
Many UK poets suggested
Why not end with Boris's poop!?
PB had us all laughing
And falling off our seats
FS, L.B.M, AP, N
Enthralled us with their treats
AS did an acrostic
We all had to make a guess
What the next line would be
We all made such a mess
We tried out some limericks
Just like ME often did
Some took only minutes
Others said 'heaven forbid'
yr, BB, Gf60 came
fA1, da, D and DD too
wh and RH could not be with us
NH, sos, RL, K quite new
They all read out their poems
Many of love, some erotic
Some so funny, some heartbreaking
Of any and every topic
Such superb inspiring poets
Expressive, uplifting too
Some wrote on daily basis
Some were still very new
I think it would be great fun
For MPS poets to meet
We'd change the world OUR way
Our words could kill that Covid.
I am so glad I joined the MPS site. I enjoy reading the poems and learning about people, cultures, places, seasons etc. Although we are from everywhere, our fears and sorrows, our hopes and dreams are the same.
My apologies to MPS poets for using initials, to those mentioned or not mentioned. It's that stubborn bit of my brain that tries to fit it all - the rhyming lobe.

Great words Rozina, one day I dream I am going to get an island and we can all meet and be with each other in harmony.
Andy
Thank you Andy. I am seeing you writing your island poem….
Thats a fun read.... I think a meet-up would be great but there would be so much noise with everyone wanting to orate.
Thank you. Yes, I can imagine the noise!
Great poem ! 🙂 I bet some of us would be able to talk easily to each other ..
I like your words
And I really like this site
Thank you. It’s a lovely group, and it would be easy to chat. Members are very encouraging and constructive in their comments.
Are we organising a piss up in a brewery, somewhere, maybe poet's corner? Put me down for a crate of ale, and a coke to be sociable.
Ok. I think you mentioned a pub before called The Red Lion - would it fit us?
It's a bit like the hotel California, once you're in you never leave.
now that's a dream
worth waxing poetic about...
thank you, simply beautiful
what a Friday treat..
loved your Second stanza,
('T.15' as our lead-off
one hit homerun, wonder!
I'll be there, hidden somewhere
cheering y'all on
with my pom-pom's
and Kylie, short-short's)
lol
'oh yeah, trust me
ain't no one gonna wanna see
that image, in reality
so staying hidden, is a must for me'
Thank you so much.
So sweet dear Rozina
Often did I wonder what a beautiful sight it would be to meet all beautiful poets that we read
To all poets that I read, they all are like celebrities to me
Those souls that we read
One day we may give them shape
And nevertheless I was searching my initials too
So happy to see myself there
Thanks a lot dear Rozina
Thank you. I really enjoy reading the lovely lines and seeing the pictures that emerge from the poems. Yes we may all meet one day.
Hi Rozina,this is great,so funny. Would you believe I had this very thought earlier today,..not writing about it,but how nice it would be to have a summer picnic,..we can call it picnic of poetry ,..choose your potatoes wisely. Lol😂✌️🕊
A picnic of poetry. That is lovely. Thank you.
Not been on for a few days and so glad I fiound this - a super write and tribute to a great bunch of poets - and refreshingly original too.
Thank you.
this is not only most original but really quite spectacular .... makes one feel like being part of the family ... 10/10 🙂
Thank you.
What a wonderful poem Rozina, and a most welcome idea as well.
Though we are darted all over the world, I'm sure an event can be arranged, as it would be a great occasion.
Also, I will endeavour to make my acrostics more clear, hahaha!
Bravo, and I hope that all is well!
Thank you. I couldn't resist putting in that stanza - I learnt the word 'acrostic' from your poem so thank You.
