I never heard of this kind of poem before, but it seems fun to write (and read). Amusing and looks to me like it's done just right.

The essence poem is fun, but it's harder than it looks. The internal rhymes are a challenge. Glad you found it a fun read. Thanks for the wonderful review.

I thought the same thing when I read it--that the style is probably harder than it looks, so you really did a good job with it.
Comment from Mark Schardine
He must have his habits, and his habits decide all.
Somewhat like rabbits, who carrots or nothing at all.
He might even turn down Champagne.. Do not try to persuade him.

Oh, we just let Farley do his own thing. LOL Not like the rabbits. They eat all sorts of things. Thanks for a review that gave me a smile.

Well, then Farley can just sit at home with Budweiser foam running down his chin. Make mine a Guiness any day, hour or...see ya.

Cindy: appears to be a perfect Essence poem. I had never heard of them before this contest. I have written poems with internal and end rhyme before, though, so can appreciate your efforts here. For such a short poem, with all that rhyming, is seems beefy. I enjoyed this piece and I wish you good luck in the contest. livelylinda

Thanks. Yes, the essence poem is harder than it looks. Glad you enjoyed it. It didn't do too well in the contest. There were lots of good entries this time.

Comment from Muffins
Some people are as picky about their beer as a bribe picking out her wedding gown. I'm not a beer drinker but I have been around beer drinkers and all beers are not equal. When the subject of beer is raise, passions run hot. Do you drink American beer vs. European beer, do you drink barely beer or do you drink light beer. In two sentences you have created a good conversation piece. It's something a writer is supposed to do.

I'm not much of a beer drinker. It never occured to me that my little rhyme might be a conversation piece. It's nice to know you think it might be. Thanks for a wonderful review.
Comment from ExperiencingLiphe
I never really drank beer, even when I did drink, it was never beer. But I'm assuming barley beer is Irish. I don't know if I'd drink it either. LOL. Great job friend

I'm not a beer lover myself, but I thought it made a good, fun little rhyme. I'd much prefer a glass of good wine. Thanks for the great review.
Comment from Acquired Taste
Very cute poem - and I don't doubt he isn't there. Barley beer is an acquired taste (:) very strong as I understand it and am not sure it is served all places. Be fun to find out! Good luck! AT=/

I guess it's not for everyone; I'd prefer a good wine myself, but I thought it made a good rhyme. Glad you liked my little contest entry. Thanks for the wonderful review.
Comment from sweetwoodjax
this is a cute essence poem, cindy, and you got two internal rhymes instead of one, hard enough to create one internal rhyme. I enjoyed reading it. how did it do in the contest?

Glad you liked it. It didn't do so well in the contest, only one vote. There were a few really good entries this time.
Comment from Jackarrie
