Silent One April 3, 2026 at 10:04 AM Very clever and great use of this form... Andrea Dietrich April 3, 2026 at 5:36 PM Thanks, S O

Jay Narain April 3, 2026 at 9:57 AM Nice selection. If you want to see what real veggie lovers eat, visit a chinese or Indian supermarket I live off vegetables. Love them. Andrea Dietrich April 3, 2026 at 5:36 PM I love Indian food but mostly what they do with potatoes. In this form of poetry, footles, I am only allowed to use two syllable words , so many veggies cannot be used. I will have a part 2 of veggie footles in the future! Thanks

Jan Allison April 2, 2026 at 3:48 PM ha ha ha a fab string of fun footles. Ive not written any in ages so may be inspired by you to write them again:-) hugs jan x Andrea Dietrich April 3, 2026 at 5:40 PM There's not much else I can give to sponsors who usually prefer a certain style of free verse over most rhymes. Thanks, Jan
