Andrea Dietrich Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

For the Trimeric Contest of Janice Canerdy

My Cure for the Blues

I have a cure when I feel blue.
When I am home and it is late,
there’s something first that I must do.
It sure is easy, fast, and great.

When I am home and it is late,
I settle down to watch TV,
which is a lot of fun for me.

There’s something first that I must do.
I grab a pan; some corn I pop,
then drizzle butter on the top.

It sure is easy, fast and great.
I crunch on it throughout the night.
With popcorn – everything’s all right!

Valsa George August 20, 2024 at 7:47 PM Hi Andrea, it is something admirable from your part. If you can divert your mind with such a simple thing, life becomes so easy. If I am depressed, I lose interest in watching TV. What gives me some relief when I am blue is tending my plants. But at night, I can't do it. As a result, I get a sleepless night. Enjoyed your popcorn trick!

Gershon Wolf August 19, 2024 at 7:49 PM Gosh, you can still do that?! I'm impressed... My stomach hasn't let me do it for quite a while now. Miss those days too. Andrea Dietrich August 20, 2024 at 7:01 AM I hear of people who can't eat popcorn. I think my stomach can take just about anything!

Joe Maverick August 18, 2024 at 12:31 PM A rather corny write..Yet should do alright.' I must pop off now..' Andrea Dietrich August 18, 2024 at 12:41 PM HA!

Joseph May August 16, 2024 at 7:34 AM You have figured out how to make the blues stop, watching a movie and 'popping corn, drizzling butter on the top', Best wishes in the Contest Andrea Dietrich August 18, 2024 at 12:41 PM Air popped gives you a lot more for the calories, but not half as good as using oil to pop it in!

Victor Buhagiar August 16, 2024 at 1:14 AM Great idea, but I am diabetic. There is so much prohibited food. Hugs.

Jay Narain August 15, 2024 at 9:47 AM for dinner! Sounds like a good idea. Andrea Dietrich August 18, 2024 at 12:42 PM yes, sometimes I do it for dinner!!

Joseph P. DiMino August 15, 2024 at 6:07 AM Love it! Put some grated cheese on my as well -- what the hell! It's all good. Andrea Dietrich August 18, 2024 at 12:42 PM parmesan with italian seasonings is incredible. Also lemon pepper salt!

Weston Gregory August 14, 2024 at 10:44 PM A treat in ways never refute, an all round favorite thing that do well with snacking. The symbolism of niceness from such a stalk. Roast corn on the cob I had that one also. Good thing comes from a resolute mind. Andrea Dietrich August 18, 2024 at 12:42 PM yes, corn on the cob is wonderful too

Paige Hind August 14, 2024 at 1:31 PM Hey, this is cute! I like eating with a movie, as well! <3 Andrea Dietrich August 18, 2024 at 12:44 PM I don't have a limit on my appetite. I lack the gene for feeling satiated when full, so I have to count calories and be careful not to overeat. Back in the day, I would get a large popcorn and go back for the refill, butter and all. I don't think many men can even eat as much as i used to eat in my youth!

Silent One August 14, 2024 at 1:21 PM Yes TV has a way of bringing us peace and ease... Nice idea for the contest.. Andrea Dietrich August 18, 2024 at 12:44 PM I know I should like nature more, but I just love a good story on tv!!
