The Cookie Thief
Bigfoot couldn't resist27 total reviews
Comment from Alexmi1984
This poem's title got me on a hook, being a cookie fan myself. Then, I read the poem. I had images of hot, out-of-the-oven cookies as I was reading your well-written and, as far as I'm concerned, funny poem. And, to use an over-burnt cliche, I'd say that I enjoyed the first stanza the most. I enjoyed it all but this felt special, for me.

You did a good job including all the words that you needed and wrote an amusing poem. It told a nice story and I liked the ending. Cookies and milk are always good for breaking the ice and making new friends.

If big foot did exist and faint what a happy ending. If only all people could be like this old man. Show kindness when someone needs care instead of using a shotgun. For that reason I like this poem.

Comment from Glasstruth
LOL. You've done an excellent job in using those words. My favorite stanza is:
"Bigfoot faints, he is caught
the old nudist wraps a lilac
towel around his body
he bends over and fans a
magazine over the prone ape" This was a hoot as that happy owl would've said. Well done! Les

Comment from Curly Girly
What an odd tale! However, it was cute. Nothing better than a cuddle up to a hairy ape - I know, I'm married to one. Great fun. I hope it does well. I can see no need for corrections. I'm off to make him cookies now...

Comment from Thatguypk
A very, erm... unusual subject, but charmingly humorous. I think it skips from past to present tense about half way through. The required words are neatly embroidered into the story, creating a whimsical, but thoroughly enjoyable nonsense rhyme.

Comment from humpwhistle
Well, mermaids, I doubt these words took anyone else
to the place you went---and that's a compliment.
This is very imaginative.
I wish you the best of luck at the polls.
Peace, Lee
maybe 'like (a moth ) to flame--the ape is singular, the moth should be, too.

Comment from cvcopac
This is crazy and funny and a bit poignant. Looks like you got all the required words in, easily. The narrative is great and the syntax is not bad but could use a little work. You probably wrote this in a flash. Nonetheless, excellent and I enjoyed it. cvc
