Yea I met to add the a as part of the dialect, I'll fix it like I did the last. Thank you, I have to go off of the beaten path to explain my admiration.

The "a" is suposed to be in there because they are Italian. They might make me take it out too. Thank you very much for your compliments and review.

Comment from angel of the quill
food for more than my need
given to the unity
sometimes the soul is needing more
than food at their door
oh heart beat faint fall away
for lack of the food that makes you say
oh sweet the honey'ed words are fed
where the truth of your inner self be said
these are the words that flowed from you
as the poem was read through

Thank you very much for this review and your compliments. Just a small pizza shop that gets bigger as you come to know them. God bless!
Comment from jeana
I liked your poem. A tribute to close friends is always wonderful, usually there are not enough of them. How we take so much for granted. The passages are flowing and what a romantic environment you have enticed throughout your flowing passages. Italians are always romantics at heart I know I'm half.
You may want to change the to they in the 2nd stanza. jeana

As soon as I saw this review, that is what I immediatly did. Thank you for your compliments and review. Good friends are hard to find and in most cases, just happens. I wished that I could really feel like I could write more of these... and everylady a love poem.

You are so very sweet. A perfect gentleman. The writing will flow from you in time, it has already started. jeana
Comment from rivki1111
This is a piece of poetic history, isn' it....and i found it unique...i haven't reviewed a poem with this theme from this angle, presenting it as a narrated history of not only a restaurant but a family too...great stuff, and the technical aspects of writing look fine to me, but grammar is not my forte...I read for content, and meaning, entertainment....(sometimes i think the technical things are secondary)
i enjoyed your work and would recommend it to other readers for review, cheers, rebekah
Plesae wsah up and put aawy aynhting you use.
Mugs, paltes, soopns, knvies, froks, etc etc
Did i make meaning, even though i am terrible technically...?
Thank you for the all the work you have done to share your poem, and the author notes which were very extensive...rebekah

Ok, ok! I see your point and I also got a good laugh. With poetry, I have learned to look at things with three heads. Then neat thing is there are several ways to go about this, in my case, the idea was, they spend so much time at their business and still have such a love for it in going far above and beyond making establishment beautiful. If I could have posted other photos to show this, I would have. Thank you very much for your compliments and review.

You got me all hungry for a breaded veal and eggplant enormous sandwich at my St. Lawrence market, now closed. I'll have to wait till tomorrow, hot peppers and fried onions, pizza sauce.
What happened to my guitar boy by the pissoir?
Not that this picture isn't distinguished, nothing like that. :)
Love,
Mila

I took it off before someone told him and he got made, that has happened before. I wrote more about him in the PM, being an art student, you'll get a kick. I think you like him more then me? He only writes twisted tunes. Thank you very much for your review and kind? words. You have my permission to place the screen on the floor to use it for pest control. Ha Ha.
Mila, have a great morning!
Love, Mike

You are far too kind, Mike, sir, thank you, I use my cat for pest control, lol.

I love the mighty hunters trying to catch flies, they do, do it. Madam Mila, since you can't use me for that purpose, I then recomend putting the monitor in a negative space. lol
Have a great day mam, you deserve it!
Love, Sir, Mike K2 a lot.
