Hi Brooke,

Another joy to read, I like the daddy's face, it's telling Sawyer, this is mine! but down deep, he's saying have some my little one...This is a cute poem, I know of the minute form but I have never used the form...it reads very well out loud...
Thanks for sharing this with us, it was another of your delightful poems.

Hugs,
Victoria

    Victoria, thank you so very much :-) Andy dotes on his little boy - it is so cute to see them together. Brooke

I can't get the picture for some reason, but the words say it all anyway. How funny. Love the last verse. I have written very few minute poems, but really like them. This is the best one I've ever read.
Hugs,
Maria C.

    Ah hahahahaha. That is a wonderful picture. Andy's eyes say it all. I'm glad I was able to see the picture. The poem it great but paired with particular picture it's priceless.

Daddy looks pretty suspicious too! I appreciate your reminding us about the requirements for a minute poem--your piece uses a bit of monologue effectively as well. Thanks for the fun- Joan

Hehe...this perfectly describes the look expressed on the man's face in this photo! Your writing makes me feel like I'm sitting in your living room flipping through a treasured scrap book.
LOVED the last two lines! :)

It IS whimsical and, as always, a delightful, smiley read, Brooke.

"This is well written with a smooth flow of words ..."??? !!!

(Sorry, I couldn't resist - that's all anyone gets from this reviewer and it makes me want to scream, sometimes!!)

Oh man that's cute! Why is it that Daddy's don't have to follow the rules? The poem is really cute but the picture... the picture is worth a thousand words! Beautiful!!

Wish that I had a six to give this one...The picture adds greatly to your wonderful poem..Dad looks like he isn't at all that happy about sharing, though Sawyer seems to think that this is such a good thing & so much fun!

Adorable! I don't know whose cuter, Sawyer or your son-in-law. This is a nice form that works well with this poem. Mama says, but Daddy may not always follow! I like "Daddy's stare", "let me skim", and "Daddy's eyes say move along...".

Sharing is another beautifully written and funny poem. This minute poem is an interesting one with 60 syllables. Possibly my first encounter with such style. Well done!

Hi Brooke,
This piece brought back some wonderful memories of the same scenario with my boys. I trained them with the idea that, "If you're hungry, find your mama, that's where your food comes from." I jest, but I certainly appreciate the look on Andy's face, and the amount of sharing for which he is in store, lol...in more ways than just food, I'm afraid. Nice thought and delivery on this humorous take on sharing, Bill

    Thanks so much, Bill. It's a good thing he dotes on his son because he hates to share his food, but for Sawyer he makes major exceptions :-) Brooke
