Not soupy enough?

What did I do wrong
Not soupy enough?

I spent the last hour
Surfed the 'Net
for the 'best soup of the day'
Done everything
Perfect list of ingredients

Not soupy enough?
Not just an outright , no!
You can do better than that

No honey!
not that, remember?
My gosh, our anniversary!
Let's eat out!

  10. Nice 55, Hank. Too bad such a nice production on the anniversary. We often celebrate on weekends so soup might fill the bill in cool weather. (I also wrote 55, with the title. But it's sort of like an introductory line.)

  11. Hmmm...not soupy enough? Perhaps that was the intention.
