Excellent entry for the Ode Poem writing prompt contest. Hahaha I like your good humor. Good form. I like the presentation and imagery. The font is very pretty but a little hard to read.

This is a very cute and well written ode to Walmart. You used very good and very descriptive words. It seems like groceries everywhere are higher and higher, even Walmart. Best wishes in the contest. Teri

Well, other than psychiatric care you can likely find whatever it is a shopper wants in the vastness of their expansive stores. As for me, I'll pay more and only on the rarest occasion would visit what Sam's kids destroyed for the man himself always bought American.

I'm a little confused, are you saying that their products are made in other countries? Surely some of the products are made here. I'll look into it further. Thanks for reading. :)

Well-done entry to the ode contest. The text is a great size. It's a good rhyming poem. The verses impart a clear message of the importance the Walmart store is to the speaker.
I would extend the text box around the poem for better spacing and presentation. Drop the first line under the visual down one space. Go to the end of the last word in the poem and hit enter twice. Now your box is extended. The visual fits perfectly. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Celyn
This is a good poem that rhymes well - I presume that you are only rhyming lines 2 and 4 in every stanza. The idea is great and it does come across as an ode. The rhythm is also good apart from the last but one line, which is longer than it should be. You could have used something like 'my cupcakes are in decline instead.
Good luck with it

I enjoyed Ode to Walmart. I think it is a great place to shop! If they don't have what you are looking for, you probably don't need it. Thanks for sharing this poem. Good luck in the contest. Sarah

Comment from Frank Malley
Another ode to the trivial. Or maybe the gigantic; Walmart is a huge corporation. I don't think Shakespeare would've made the mistake of listing the reasons - plural - why, and then only give one reason. This would be easy to fix, but it's the kind of small flaw that's very often present on FS poetry and prose. Correctness has its merits, even in playful poems. (Unless the error is intentional and funny or pertinent.) Walmart could be the topic for some great writing; it's certainly a place where the zoo-like range of humanity free ranges.

I'm sure that Shakespeare would have liked the people that shop at Walmart, as he had an affinity for people of lesser means. Everything I wrote in my poem was deliberate, thanks for reading. :)

I think W.S. would have accepted Walmart people, and understood their humanity. Be well!
Comment from Douglas Goff
I wonder if this is a first? I have a feeling that there has never been an Ode to Walmart before.
How whimsical and fun. Thank you for sharing. This is a great entry!

This is an Ode Poem Contest Entry rich in Theme and Imagery.
Based on the WalMart theme there were No Grammar Issues.
Good luck with your contest Entry.
