After reading your poem, I want to eat. Your poem is great. The foods you mentioned sound delightful. The poem itself flowed very smoothly. Good luck in the contest. I think you will do well. Happy writing. Shirley

skye:

This is a luscious banquet for the mind.
Rainbows of juices vividly strikes me as an original thought and it is so visual in a happy way.
Funny ending too. Very suitable for a fine breakfast in bed.

As I read this poem I couldn't help thinking how much work was involved in all that cooking and cleaning and all the rest. I was glad to read that last line. Your poem is delightful and so uplifting. Your words are carefully chosen and paint a great picture of a B&B. The writing is excellent. Good luck

Comment from Bobbie Jo

Good

I like your poem... it made me hungry! The only thing that I think vould make it better is to have consistency within the verses. You changed the rythm during the last 3 paragraphs, and it kind of threw me off.
But I am still hungry, and I am going to go eat! :)

This is really nice. Everything sounds so wonderful, you can just see it all laid out - anything that you could possibly want its there.Everything is catered for (scuse the pun!)in this poem, the sights, the sounds, I like the "rainbow of juices". Its personal to you - sounds like you enjoyed cooking and it was all yours - the work, the inn. Lovely! Good luck in the contest luv Jenny x

Thanks so much for the delightful and positive review. Yes... all mine, but shared by all my family, who helped with all the details, but not the cooking. LOL

Nice work. Like many entries, it made me hungry! Loved the free-wheeling rhymes (hideaway/buffet, gotta love it). And methinks the narrator doesn't miss the work associated with owning that B&B one bit...

Thanks for sharing. Good luck in the contest!

I really appreciate your very thoughtful words and kind review. Go, experience, and find ones that are off the beaten path. Each one is so different, you will never have the same experience twice. Also scrumptious food!!!!!
