I really enjoyed this minute poem, Brooke. I've recently tried this form myself as I love the challenge of attempting something new :) Thanks for always sharing your knowledge on FS.
That Daddy should share because Mommy's know about these things ...smiles :)Linda

These are simple words, but so effective in conveying the message of Dad's greedy designs on that pudding. I don't blame Dad. It looks absolutely delicious, and his son did have a good share of it. Well done.

Ah, such a simple but very clever minute poem. It reads so easily, the words just skip along. Well done, a delight to read.

Ha ha ha !!! A true happening with all of us. Actually we must share thing but there are people who don't even look that we are sharing things with them. In this poem the little child becomes confused that whether to share (told by his mama) or to not(told by his daddy).
Thank you for SHARING. :)

Already Andy is playing the long-suffering father. Playing, of course. But it's a good role. Reminds me of Larry-the-Youngest's woebegone dad.

Your poem makes a fitting, whimsical caption for this catured whisical moment.

Peace, Lee

Has this really happened?...LOL

Kids are like this only. They have so many questions and the curiosity never ends. :)

Well written piece! :)

    Anupam, thank you. Andy has never liked to share food, but when it comes to his son, this is just play acting. He is a sucker for Sawyer. LOL :-) Brooke

I'm surprised you didn't enter the current 'minute poem' prompt, Brooke - especially as you're such a whizz at the form.

Excellent and fun write, but I'm sure Daddy did really give Sawyer a taste. :-)

Nice one!

Best wishes, Ted

    Thanks so much, Ted. I have not entered a single daily prompt since they made them blind contests, and I never will. And of course Daddy gave him a taste - he dotes on the child :-) Brooke

Long time since I saw this form of poetry. Of course you wrote it well and an other excellent photo from Sawyer. He share and he does not:)

It would be a minute lost if the meter were; the meter makes it. An effective rhyme scheme such as you've used here is also advantageous. He's learning when, and when not, that rule applies. Kenny
