Featured Poem on Poetry Soup - November 6, 2022

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

Crackers and Cheese

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

Harry Horsman May 6, 2022 at 7:42 PM Love this Andy, the journey the poetry, and of course, the Crackers and Cheese. Harry Andy Chunn May 7, 2022 at 7:13 PM Thanks harry....simple is good. Appreciate your taking time to read my poem. Best wishes!

Andrea Dietrich May 3, 2022 at 3:53 PM 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. Andy Chunn May 3, 2022 at 5:17 PM Go for it! I'm not sure about the interpretation of the rules but.....hey.....writing is fun!

Andrea Dietrich May 3, 2022 at 3:52 PM 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

Michelle Faulkner May 1, 2022 at 6:13 PM Great job, Andy, crackers and cheese are one of my favorite snacks (and sometimes dinner!) This is very cleverly done as well~ Andy Chunn May 1, 2022 at 7:39 PM Thank you Michelle....who doesn't enjoy crackers and cheese. I appreciate your time in reading my poem.

Andrea Dietrich May 1, 2022 at 12:58 PM 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. Andy Chunn May 1, 2022 at 7:39 PM Thank you for the kind words but....I've read many of your poems....and you are NEVER clueless.
