Ronald Kent Poet Rhyme

Not Like the Other

Opened the cupboard what a find
Dented can deep in behind
All by its self pushed to the side
Sadly like that meaning to hide

Like the rest but different yes sure
Reinforced rimed made to endure
Went a bit sideways began to roll
Hit the floor went for a stroll

Came to a stop wooden boarder
Picked up again left like a hoarder
Now you are found  what to do
Have to choose soup or the stew

Need the sustenance dented one
Another problem could be for some
No clear markings missing your label
Dented can will not make table

Andrea Dietrich December 30, 2017 at 5:58 PM oh my, that poor dented can just doesn't have a chance. I love how you ended it, he does not even have a label!! I buy sometimes the dented cans because they mark them down so cheap but my daughter in law told me that bacteria starts to form and that 's why they sell them fast. Gosh, I hope I don't ever get sick from one of those dented can's food! Ronald Kent December 30, 2017 at 8:06 PM I think today they are coated inside to prevent that from happening. Don't tell the retailer and run with the good prices, thanks for the look.

Jan Allison December 30, 2017 at 5:29 PM Great metaphor Ronald I felt sorry for the poor can pushed to one side because it was dented and different - reminded me of some of the kids i worked with who were shunned because they were different and they were isolated and lonely:-( good luck in the contest:-) hugs jan xx Ronald Kent December 30, 2017 at 8:08 PM The difference will only make them stronger. Hope the weather it treating you well.
