The simple rhyme and short lines show the attention span of a child. The words also exude the feeling that kids find happiness in the simplest things.

This poem also shows the love you have for Sawyer.

Keep writing.

Joan

He is just so cute! Love the poem. Hope you will have one enlarged and framed for his room. what were you thinking, little boys have to have their pockets. When he is a little older they will be for frogs and snakes ect. Did his Moma crave pickle when she was pregnant?

lol... I like both the poem and the comments. This looks most serious to Sawyer as well. The goo message is one I think all kids like to have a trait of sometime. :)

Looks like sawyer is into some fine dining techniques with a gourmet diet. Life couldn't get any better then dipping pickle chips in ketchup and eating it with your fingers. I'm jealous!

Nicely composed, Brooke. John

Excellent photo's that complement your children's love poem.
You are the second one I found that made it for a grandchild. Nice rhyme and flow.

Hi, Brooke...

Pickles and ketchup? Nope, not a thing wrong with that combo. A cheeseburger is just a cheeseburger UNTIL you put the pickles and ketchup on it, then it LIVES!!! Yum...

Love this one!

Cheers & Blessings
Keep Smilin'.... Jax (*.*)

Brooke;
not to take anything away from your writing, which is masterfully written, but I felt I just read a magnificent Hallmark card. This is an excellent love poem and truly a formidable entry for the contest.
The rhyming roles and throughout the writing and even helps with the rhythmic flow which flow so smoothly throughout the writing.
Your descriptions and expressions Of your imagery involved in appetite on my behalf.
Thank you so much for sharing and posting and may the good Lord be with you always, Brooke.
Alex
PS: Not only does Sawyer looks like he is munching down heartily but your picture complements your poem so well.
