Notes About The Poem

Contest: Poetic Spice Poetry Contest, Sponsored by Joseph May. 

A Recipe for a Rhyming Poetry Quiche

A poetic quiche needs lots of verbs, nouns, adverbs, adjectives and words
A large bowl is needed to add all the ingredients, spices and keywords
Stir together with some peppered punctuation to perfect your dish
Add a spritz of thyme to give you time to season your poem as you wish

Syllables help flow and mold your dough, so it doesn’t flake like fish
Roll your dough out to fit your word pie poem to make your words delish
Add a bunch of periods, metaphors, rhyming words and funny nouns too
Chop and mix until all the letters and jargon stick together like glue

Add another word dough on the top with some tasty picture bits
Brush the top with some shredded fresh monoku lined spritz
Pour your poetry mixture into your word plate with a title splash
Bake in your poetry oven until done, season with quote, just a dash

When done, let your word quiche cool for some stanza's to taste
Cut into eight paragraph servings so that nothing is left to waste
Hopefully your metaphors and pictures are not too weird or strange
And you can enjoy your rhyming quiche without needing a word change
