This Senryu Poetry writing prompt entry is well set and fixed within its syllables counting and beautifully described throughout its uncontrollable food hunger invitation narrative story lined content. Great work! Good luck with the contest!

Most people probably do eat sweets when driven by emotion. Emotions when uncontrolled can and do wreck havoc in our lives and the lives of those around us. Eating too much is hard on our bodies.

Why Do You Eat?

Hello my friend,

Good syllable count and presentation. Lines connect grammatically and flow well.

I know what you mean, people tend to eat more when it's hard to deal with emotions.

There is something about comfort food, especially sweets and more especially chocolate, that brings a certain short term feeling of contentment that sometimes we need to survive. This could be one of those times. Good luck in the contest.

The author's words are cute, sweet, clear and creative. The first two
lines of this poem flow and connect well. The last line says it all!
The artwork is awesome and compliments this poem.
Have a great day!

A very truthful and observant presentation. The emotions are in control almost always. They are the hardest thing to quell. Ergo, chocolates, whip cream, eclairs, and you name it. Well done, stay safe.

That pic is so cute. I think we all have hunger issues these days since the virus began. Stress causes us to feel hungry all the time. I heard last night on tv, that millions are going to starve in the coming future. Anyway, let's not go there. Be happy today.

This senryu is a good one! Syllable count as required and the human emotion is there big as life. Oooooh! When the emotion flares up, what I wouldn't do to stuff myself with sweet things, preferably chocolate or icecream. The only defense I have is simply NOT buying it, so I don't have it in the house and cannot give in to the strong temptation.

A very well-written Senryu about the craving to eat more when we are stressed is never a good thing and we need to control our cravings especially when we don't get much exercise.

You've written an excellent 5-7-5 poem for the contest
That need for food sometimes replaces other needs
and usually results in more problems.
A vicious circle.
Nicely done
Best wishes to you.
