Deviled Eggs

Smooth white orbs, halved and emptied
                                                 Golden centers mashed
                                             Mayo, pickle juice combined
                                                Half orbs mounded high
                                                      Paprika adorned
                                                       Won't last long
                                                                Eat!

Gwendolen Song Date: 12/1/2011 8:23:00 PM Hello Miss Kim! This dish was well-dressed! The slam dunk was the descriptive usage of white orb for eggs...how creative, poetess. And the ending was right up my alley---you are right, the Won't Last Long so EAT! lol. Congrats on this winning delight. Thanks for supporting my contest. I am still a novice but I can sense beautiful poetry! Luv, Gwendolen Login to Reply

Andrea Dietrich Date: 11/21/2011 11:59:00 PM I LOVE THESE, Kim. Sadly, at MY house, they do not go fast. Only I and my daughter seem to like them!! You came up with a great and original theme for this contest. I hope the judge loves those deviled eggs too! Login to Reply
