Comment from Dean Kuch
Okay, I'd be more than happy to.
But may I have a nice, juicy steak rather than Al fresco?
I'd sure appreciate it if I could.
I ain't much for pasta.
Okay, 'nuff about that.
This is a well written Rondel which seems to conform to all the rules.
Best of luck to you in the contest.

I was with you at that table handing out stories that are infused with cereal words. I throw them out as if I was born to be clever. I love this one. Yours, diana

Comment from Jeffrey L. Michaux
This sounds like an awesome evening . You've set the stage for some award winning discussions about a subject that every writing can probably sink there writing teeth into. Thanks for sharing this well written poem. Well done.

Comment from Debbie Pope
What a lovely poem. I love the line that you chose to repeat. It took me to dinners of my college days when we would discuss world events and literature. And to dinners with my children during relaxed summer schedules when we would talk about books they were reading. Good food and good talk. Besides transporting me to wonderful memories, your poem is masterfully done with a lilting almost ballad type rhythm and clever rhymes. I like the comma after come. It slows the reader down and your poem is all about slowing down. Memorable poem.

Cheers, Contestant;
-Is going to be a close when I read seven of the so for And right now I have picked "Dancing Dolphins", And now I'm debating whether to choose yours.
-The conceptual theme is Lighthearted and easy-going and is a calmness too, but doesn't have a pizzazz to me like Dancing Dolphins has. it can, however, If you were to embellish some imagery. In demonstrative and definitively describe an express your conceptual theme in a manner of a metaphor.
-It's going to be close between the two of you, Mr. Contestant.
-This is written and flows beautifully with the rhyming words that are contingent and supportive to each of their lines and the meaning thereof.
-This in turn, creates a fluidity With the enjambment which strengthens the conceptual themes understanding as its context the main topic of your writing.
-You have all that, however, if you would like, take some time and read her's And see how far your close to where she is. Or maybe you even better I haven't decided
yet?
-Take care and have a good one especially we can find it and good luck in the contest.

Thanks so much for the great review!! I really like your comments and will mull over what you have suggested.
Comment from Van
Superb. Not only did your choice of repeating line fit well into the context of the quatrains, it rounded out the rondel cohesively enough that I longed to sit with the author on a summer's eve to share a glass and talk of poets past.
I have no recommendation for improvement.
Nicely done.

This is a very nicely presented piece for the contest. Picture perfect in fact and I am always a little bit envious of those who handle form so well. I am a bit more of free form I do believe with an occasional go at a form or two if I feel like it. I wish you luck with this lovely piece in the contest...Dinah
