Oh Wendy I absolutely love this. I honestly felt like you were writing about me, every word besides the last part lol! I'm just writing since January and joined fan story a couple months back and i feel like im spending moat of my free time on here, I love to write poems and I enter contest and see the competition and think, oh well then. There are a lot of professionals on here as you say with bizarre techniques and words sublime. I think I've definitely learned a lot kore than what i knew!
I love your technique your meter, your rhyme it's brilliant. You are far from having a rusty blob for a brain. This made me laugh out loud because of the term, I would often say my rusty brain! Well done thanks for sharing this x

Hi, Wendy, I think you do so very well. Meter or no meter, who cares. It's the sentiments that counts and which is the foundation of any poetry. I think you got that just right. All best, Ulla xcx

great poem. I can relate I don't do meter poems very well. For some reason just can't hear the meter right. but it can be fun to try it but all too often my meter comes out just lame, rhyming is okay but I am more of a free verse kind of poet, although I do Haiku well.

-Great artwork and nice presentation, Wendy.
-You wrote a very good poem with a good topic.
-Effective imagery and rhyme.
-A very good opening verse.
-I like the second verse very much with
the Achilles heel and the cadence that's
awkward and gauche."
-Actually, you are much more skilled than you say.
-I enjoy your poetry.
-I think a lot of us can relate to the
"rusty blob" that is a brain.
-A very good poem. If I had
a six star, I would award it to you!!

You did just fine like a red or white wine though I don't imbibe with any drink harder than Dr. Pepper. Have they that drink Down thar? As for your entry, you do better than many.

    Thanks for reviewing Tom. Much appreciated. Dr Pepper is available in some places, but never really caught on much, over here.

This seems quite well metered and rhymed, methinks you think less of your poetic abilities than me, my typing skills prevent me from writing books or prose, but word economy is my strength, but your talent is unique and original, as God has made us unique and treasured, but you know that, beautifully written, blessings

I'm right there with you, sister. I can't figure our poetry at all. I enjoyed your poem about your shortfallings. It was quite clever, Wendy. Gretchen

Wendy,
What a wonderfully-humorous poem. Your meter and rhyme flow smoothly. I love the humor. I can identify with your words, because my muse sleeps in late!
You should write more poems, Wendy!
Best wishes, Cindy

    Thanks so much Cindy! Such a lovely review. Every so often I get the urge to write poetry, but I do prefer prose.

Oh yay! I love it when you treat us with your poetry! It's fun, to just let the words flow...and your rhyme and meter are perfect in my book because it comes from your heart and with a twinkle in your eye. (Also, I'm a neophyte at the meter and rely on those much more skilled to help me out when I flail around)--)

If I didn't just leave a six for Sunny's writing, I'd have another for you here!

Karenina

I got a kick out of this poem. I'm not a real poet either, and I can relate to this piece! I enjoyed your rhymes. Thank you so much for sharing, and best wishes to you.
