Featured Poem on Poetry Soup - November 6, 2022

=======================================================

Adventure is the beckon call On land and on the seas But nothing stands so strong and tall Against crackers and cheese I climbed the highest mountain range Sometimes on hands and knees The things that kept me seeking change Were crackers and the cheese Once on high seas tossed and thrown And praying dear Lord please The crew on deck began to moan Without crackers and cheese And so I tell you wanting rhyme A parable to please Through troubles you can still take time To chew crackers and cheese

This poem has an excellent lyrical flow to it. Crackers and Cheese both a great snack and you've upped it's greatness with your adventurous verses. A well deserved win! Thank you for taking part in the contest.

maybe I will do what I want anyway. Looking at yours again, I can see you used great imagination and not something that is an everyday activity.

Go for it! I'm not sure about the interpretation of the rules but.....hey.....writing is fun!

well, what you said below. I got an idea for this contest but then i went and reread her rules and my idea flew out the window. She wants the food related to one everyday activity. (not what I had been thinking of doing) DANG

Great job, Andy, crackers and cheese are one of my favorite snacks (and sometimes dinner!) This is very cleverly done as well~

wow, you did GREAT with this food merger theme. I really want to do it, but I am so clueless right now. Hopefully I can be inspired by how you did your poem to think something up.
