My goodness, this flowed like a monorhyming river, my talented friend. A lovely poetic offering for the ode contest. Sending you my best today as always and my very best wishes for the upcoming contest.

This was a fun project but it didn?t do well here. Very fun!
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
Goodness, how did you do this with that monorhyme! I'm impressed (though grammar not always spot-on), it's quite a fun feat and extravaganza of rhyming skill, all as a tribute to that rather common-sounding 'ode'! Quite a tribute! Good luck Debbie

Yeah I had to take a few liberties with grammar to make it work. Even I spotted that! Ha!
Thank you my friend. It didnt do great but they can?t all be winners. Still, this was so much fun!

Writing an ode is praising someone who you admire. We need a pat on the back when writing an ode sometimes (even if we praise ourselves for writing the ode.) I bet you got lots of clapping when you took your curtsy.

Ha! The crowd exploded. It was an amazing feeling. Quite the adrenaline rush. Couldn?t believe it.

I loved your rhymes and the way your poem flowed! An "ode to an ode" was a very clever idea. I am glad you are doing well in the contest. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Thanks although I think I am in last place. Ha! Your praise is win enough for me, Jessi!
Comment from Julie Helms
You had me laughing just at the title! This is very witty and funny.
"So stick with the ode regaling a great load."
This got me going to... Odes and poetry are oft delicate and spiritual and you're talking about great loads :-D
Thank you for the laugh! Julie.

So I won already because I made you laugh. That is, after all, what writing is all about!
Comment from Navada
Well, this is a rhyming tour de force! There is a real liveliness and verve to this piece and it is a fun exploration of the art of writing. One suggestion I'd make is to alter your line lengths so the rhyming is more visually apparent. Good luck for the contest! :)

Thanks, my Aussie pal! I had sixty seconds on open mike to read this. Hence the rapid format!
