Comment from Mystic Angel 7777
This is a delightful piece! Anyone who has ever cooked over and open fire can certainly relate to the things that can and do go wrong. One of my memories is of doing spaghetti - it was all going well until we realized we had no way of picking up the pasta pot to drain it and so took turns scooping bits of spaghetti out with forks a little at a time - meanwhile everything else got a wee bit over done LOL. I thoroughly enjoyed this and thank you very much for sharing it.

Comment from Nosha17
Cute story, I liked the humour and light-hearted feel. Good descriptions of all the mishaps of this ill-fated campfire meal amongst friends, good use of rhyming. A few things: Verse 2, the sun's gone down. Verse 4, My cooking's........ God's sake. Verse 5, bread's gone. Last verse, night's.....
Enjoyable read.

Hi, Christine...
_ This is too funny.
_ That it's true is even better.
_ Well, if you had S'mores, you were probably back in everyone's good graces very soon.
_ Love the sense of humor throughout this too.
_ I wish I had a sixer left to give. Great job!
Cheers & Blessings

Thanks Jax for having a read and yes it is all true but isn't that the way truth is often more funny than fiction. As always enjoy you lovely comments and support Cheers Christine😀
Comment from hannahorion
This poem is about preparing dinner while camping and everything that can go wrong does go wrong. It is written in just seven quatrains with an AABB (doubled couplet) rhyme scheme and iambic meter. This makes it plain to read and recite. The stanzas are descriptive with a good economy of words allowing the story to be interpreted without any restrictions. The language is colloquial and flows off the tongue with ease. The feeling or mood of the poem is friendly panic. I found this poem a delight to read and think about and could identify with it as I have had similar experiences.

Thanks Hannah for your very detailed review I had no idea that I had written this meeting all these poetry requirements but thanks for interpreting my poem in such a great constructive way it is much appreciated. Basically I write usually with a rhyming style hopefully flowing so it it easy to read. And yes we had a good laugh about the events related to this poem. Glad you liked it Cheers Christine
