Notes About The Poem

Spaghetti

Time for Dinner: An Entree Acrostic Challenge Poetry Contest
Andrea Dietrich


Streams of savory sauce
Pass the pasta's inspection
As mushrooms and garlic
Gather steam.
Hamburger holds the fort,
Each blast of herbs stands guard.
The picnic table sets the stage.
Thy red wine dances in.
It's a family splash.

Connie read someone else's acoustic and saw the BOLD letters, and then it dawned/donned on her to reread the contest rules ... oh, oh. Okay, my bad, my BOLD letters are now in. The poem is now cast in cement.
