Andrea Dietrich Poet Acrostic

Notes About The Poem

POTD June 4, 2024

For Benjamin Bartley's Poetry Soup Contest

_____________________________________________________________________

Poetry Soup

Poets here have got a lot
Of soups that they can sup:
Elegy and etheree, epulaeryu served hot;
Tanka, haiku, dodoitsu -Asian broths served in a cup.
Rhyme here is a regular favor.
Free verse also we can savor.

Sonnet is a classic some serve up with ease
On our menu, many items every day are shown.
Using creativity, we like to tweak our recipes.
Please try our soups; better yet, cook some up of your own!

Benjamin Bartley September 4, 2024 at 6:46 AM I placed you in my contest anyway. It is really good. You had potential to win if I hadn't read it on POTD. I like my contestants to remain anonymous before I judge them. It was my first contest as host so I hope you're not too disappointed. Honestly, they were all so good, it was hard to judge. Congratulations. And thank you for entering my contest and as always, thanks for sharing.

ANyway, I think we can always guess certain poets by the style they use, so the contests do not always end up being so anonymous as we would like them to be. Glad to place anywhere on your list. There were many great poems entered in your contest.

Diane Christian June 30, 2024 at 12:28 AM well written. we all have diffrent tastes of writing i write mainly rhyme while learning the others.

Jack Horne June 26, 2024 at 6:00 AM love this - especially love that it's a rhyming acrostic

You've got a lovely mind, orderly and inventive! Xo Crystol Woods June 22, 2024 at 11:16 AM Did I miss something obvious...I hesitate to comment cause I'm sure there's a good reason but... your acrostic spells, POETRF SOUP?

Lin Lane June 4, 2024 at 9:20 AM Some days the soup is better than others. I don't like peppery soup, nor bitter. Those ingredients should be tossed out of the kitchen. Congratulations on your potd, Andrea.
