For Poet Beret55

I decided to honor Paul (Beret55) with a contest. He is a friend to me and so many others on AP and always has a kind word for his friends and helps out with donating points for our contests. He is an amazing poet who brings many laughs with his humorous poems and also smiles with his romantic poems.
He has served his country with honor in the special forces of the Green Berets. Write what ever you want to about this dear friend and poet and bring him the smiles he gives so willingly to us. Hope to see many wonderful poems. Thank you. Sandy
