Nicely done,Your poem serves to remind readers (and perhaps critics themselves) of the deeper significance of food beyond mere technicality—highlighting the importance of connection, memory, and emotional engagement in the appreciation of culinary art. You seem to suggest that true artistry lies not only in perfection but in the willingness to take risks and connect with others through shared experiences.

A wonderful metaphor that made me hungry. Poems like food vary in their taste as do those that consume them vary in theirs. A poem may be perfect but is it perfect for the taste of its reader? No one can tell so all the cook or author can do is make it perfect for themselves. I have always said that what makes a poem a poem to me is the emotion it evokes not the nicety of form or rhyme.

Danced my way through the lines. The rhyme giving those sharp deliberate movements every good waltz deserves. Very Nice. Thanks for sharing.

If only we heard the strains whileas your lyrics trip down the page, I daresay we\'d waltz gaily. Fascinating and sweetly rendered with excellent imagery and a delicious poignancy. Thank you for sharing. Thank you as well for the note on it!

lovely done, your poem revolves around summer activities and experiences, such as enjoying fruits, laughter, and leisure time spent with loved ones. It paints a vivid picture of sunny days, playful interactions, and the warmth of human connection.

Full of forgotten images of youth and past days. I was most intrigued with your opening lines
long, top-down drives
even shirtless-tans
sweet strawberry-kisses and
glorious watermelon stains
Here the imagery first line is reinforced in the second, a top down drive (in a convertible) is seen as a top down in shirtless tans. Sweet strawberry kisses is seen in the red watermelon stains of the second line. This is most ingenious and certainly most poetic on another level. My congratulations and a fave

Excellent write that demands multiple reads and is layered in metaphor. I also love how the shape of the poem resembles, at least to me, sheets hung out in the wind. Brilliantly done, my friend! 🌹👏
