I am not familiar with this type of poetry. You do meet the conditions provided in your notes. Commendable.
I like how your poem progresses. You tell it just like is, matter of fact-ly. Personally, I like the French view of food, it's about pleasure and not just sustenance. Well done clarity poem. Thanks for sharing...

A nice food pyramid well written. It conjures up food related emotions but not always the right ones. The poem is sufficiently general to avoid criticism but the graphic is all fruit, containing some good and bad (high fructose).

So well done, Patty. You are quite the poet. I realize how good you really are the more I read of your work recently. I like the closing line or satori:

"Just what we need for energy"

Brilliant work, my friend. Blessings, Bob

I review this as I eat an Ambrosia apple. Yum!

This is a great Clarity Pyramid celebrating not only food, but where it comes from:

from nature's bounty
harvested from the ground
taken fresh from farm to store

Your poem is affirming and encouraging people to eat more fruits and vegetables.

Thank you for sharing your well-crafted poem.

I remember writing one of these once. I think the topic of mine was "storm."
I think you chose a wonderful topic for yours and I especially like your last line as it brings the poem full circle, giving it relevance. Thanks for sharing.

Best,
Lena

In my opinion, a descriptive poem, well constructed in its succinct and easy movement - apparently, in complete conformity with the poem's form and rendered with style and taste...

That photograph looks fantastic. Raw fruits and vegetables have virtually no calories in a cup (50 to 100). I love your poem. It was an enjoyable read. Kept my interest. Good narrative writing style. Very energetic. Nice work. Good luck in the contest :)

The picture of the fruit pizza looked good enough to eat and made me feel really hungry. I liked the words as they portrayed a healthy diet and fitted the poem really well. Thank you for sharing.
