I liked your intriguing title and parallel photograph selection. Your clever 5-7-5 is made even more appealing by your alliteration of "s's". I'd enjoy your "haiku sandwich" any time! Best wishes in the contest- Joan

I really enjoyed reading your 5-7-5 poem "Two ends and a middle". I liked the humour and you had all your lines and syllables correct for this genre.
All the best.

It took me a few reads to figure out this 5-7-5. Then I realized you were talking about the poem itself. Unique topic and amusing photo to accompany. Good luck in the contest. Marilyn

Liked this a lot. It got a grin out of me. I'm not a poet, I just play one on tv, but I love haiku. I don't get all the rules, but I enjoy them anyway. Your syllable count is perfect, of course. That with the grin looks like a vote to me!

between two slices of five 7
yum...haiku sandwich 5............good syllable count :)

Excellent 5/7/5 and the picture is perfect for the poem. Good job.

A very well-written 5-7-5 poem with a little truth that gives it a fun element of mystery and say a lot in three lines with limited syllables. When the poet gets the message across it serves as a little jewel.

An unusual 5-7-5 poem, but a good description of the form
Not sure how good it would taste as a sandwich
but it reads nicely as a poem
Perfect picture to match
Nicely done
Good luck in the contest
