Goldilocks and the Three Bears Congratulations! I truly enjoyed your poem, and did not see that ending coming. I wrote Balderdash in this contest. It was a fun contest to do. Blessings, JoAnn

A delightful twist on the tale of "Goldilocks and the Three Bears". The artwork goes very well with this poem. I really like these lines as I always wondered why she had never knocked--LOL!--"In spite of knowing it was sin,
Like a thief she breezed right in." So now I know, the devil made her do it. Great job!

This would be the best acrostic I have ever read! Your rhyming words are clever and never miss a beat. It is fun but is also an amusing and entertaining tale. My very best wishes for the competition.

Excellent job telling that classic story in that format, making it work and rhyme throughout. The cursive writing is a nice touch and you write this in a throwback fashion similar to the original, very good!

Poet,
Your Acrostic poem is epic and magnificently written with terrific imagery.
I'm sorry I make a rule never to give a six on blind entries because I want to know the poet's or writer's name.
The art work is wicked cool you used
You used excellent rhyme, great alliteration and very fine metaphor usage in your Acrostic story poem. Goldy is a thief who breaks in, eats their food and tears the place up. She needs to be arrested for B & E.
I enjoyed your lines:
Like a thief she breezed right in.
Oatmeal porridge sat there steaming;
Could it be that she was dreaming?
Kids, you know that this was wrong,
She supped a plateful ere too long
I liked your last stanza or Bears word:
Become quite cross if someone ruins
Everything they planned to eat
And Baby's darling little seat.
Regrettably the sleeping sinner
Served the bears for early dinner!
I adore this Acrostic.
I wish you good luck in the contest.
You will be getting my vote.
Would I recommend this poet's Acrostic poem to other reviewers? Heck yes!
Missy.

Comment from mshirachot
BRAVO!!! This was absolutely delightful! I enjoyed it so much more than the old traditional tale making Goldi out to be some sort of heroine. And those poor maligned bears...oh my! The rhythm and rhyme of this is great and you've went the additional step to make everyone aware that Goldi had some sin issues!
Great writing! Best wishes with this writing prompt.
Blessings to you,
Marsha

Thank you, Marsha - glad you enjoyed.
Don't we all have 'sin issues'?

LOL...Steve! You are correct. We all do...and sometimes I feel like Paul when he said, "I am the chief of sinners".
Blessings!
