Your title certainly caught my attention, and Sawyer does look a bit guilty! I enjoyed the monolog in rhymed quatrains and your lighthearted subject, intensified by the echoing hard "c's". Cheers- Joan

Comment from ILovePoetry!
This deserves seven stars! Rhythm? Check! Rhyme? Check! Originality? Check Check Check!!! (And of course the picture adds a lot too ;) - Great icing on the good cupcake!) This is such an innocent and sweet little poem that describes kids (and adults) perfectly! We all want that cupcake. Somehow, no matter what diet you're on, the cupcake ends up in your hands and eventually in your mouth. There must be some scientific theory behind this - magnetic force? Gotta be. Whatever the case may be, GIVE ME THAT CUPCAKE! Great job on this one!

Comment from Giddy Nielsen-Sweep
The devil made me do it! They say a picture is worth 1000 words? well it's true in this case! How clever of Miranda to catch this one. Your poem is also worth much? so cleverly rhymed, Giddy

I haven't been online for a while and I can't believe how big Sawyer is getting! He is adorable! I enjoyed the poem. It was funny and sweet. It's lovely that you get inspired by your grandson. Well done. :)

Comment from EmberSnowcat
The cupcake thief. I have three of those in this house, four if you count my husband who swears it was the kids lol. Wonderful wording and excellent rhyming. I am still a little rusty on types of poetry, but after taking time to look up quatrains I think you did a great job. You have the rhyme, and the four stanzas. You have the pure joy of a beautiful poem that brings a smile to my lips and a sweet tooth to my stomach now. :) Great job!

Comment from paulah60
How fabulous, Brooke! Very deftly illustrates that wonderful quality of innocence in a young child, so you can't really consider it telling lies, can you?! I love it when they say they're going to hide and they put their hands over their little faces LOL
As always, good stuff!
Cheers
Paula
