The author's words are interesting, entertaining, descriptive, fun and
creative. I thought about how we used to take a daisy and say "he loves me - he loves me not"! Thank you for the memory of doing this! The poem flows and connects well. The artwork is perfect and compliments this poem.

What a fun contest entry poem that's beautifully presented,
Mystery Author. I enjoyed everything about it--the color scheme,
the image, the couplet rhyming, and fun (well mostly fun)
way of deciding he loves, he loves me not. Your words/lines
flow smoothly and create great imagery.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes in the contest, Jan

couplet 3rd from the end Ive--I've
couplet 2nd from end Mr right--Mr.

AS i know this is just a writing exercise, I will not be too critical of such a foolish policy of trusting anything besides the measuring up to or failure thereof of your own personal standards. No one knows better than you what you like or dislike. Do you like how he/she makes you feel. If the answer is yes proceed. If the answer is no, either move on or consider altering your standards, not an advisable thing to do.

    Oh Nomi this was just a silly fictional poem that I dreamed up this morning.
    Sometimes I just have to use humor in my writing, as that's how I smile more. God sometimes puts that in my heart on the days that I need that. You are so very sweet and I thank you so very much for your most lovely review and such kindness. You are awesome my friend!

    I knew that it was pure fantasy. However, I like flexing my opinions so much that I take full advantage whenever I can. :))

The objective correlative of your work reminisces a protagonist's unending search for Mr. Right.

The work highlights her near lot casting method in certifying his convergence with Mr. Right.

The work earns its texture through its effective use of anecdotes synonymous with casting lots.

Excellent work. Bravo.

This is a cute poem and has pictures to match, sort of. Your decision to dump the one who talks only about himself is good and your solution to the problem with the next guy sort of works. Best of luck in the contest.

    Thanks Carol, as sometimes I just need some silly humor and the cobs of corn and changing it to only Loves me phrase seemed to make it even sillier.
    I appreciate your lovely review and fun comments my friend. Thanks again!

Wow. I'm guessing I'm one of many who, as a young lass, performed this ritual. I beheaded enough daisies (but not dandelions--because you're right, they just didn't work!)) to qualify me for a lifetime membership in teen angst "Tinder"--if there's been such a thing.

What a societal commentary that as young girls we were already pre-programmed to think only about whether or not "he loves me" -- there were no similar rituals to ask, "Is he worthy of MY love?"--

Love the humor here...and the underlying message...

Forget all the fairytale nonsense.

We are not fair maidens waiting for the prince.

We're queen bees!

    And you my friend Karenina are so much fun. Your comments made me smile and I thank you very much for that. I sometimes need silliness in my life and corn cobs are probably not any you tried either. Thanks my lovely friend for your fun review and words. : )

    Hey, when I was young I'd grab those silly buttercups my grandmom would pick and hold under my chin to "see if you like butter"--and begin the loves me, loves me not" chant!

    SHE, being ever so wise, did NOT tell me to seek my worth--she directed me to the DAISIES--for THEY held the key to my happiness!

    LOL. Turns out I Liked butter a whole lot more than those men I was beheading flowers over!

    Hahahaha! You always crack me up! Thank you my friend, and btw; I did that too and under my chin would turn yellow. LOL, Don't even get me started on my love of butter!

    I mean, isn't that why GOD made corn on the cob? As a receptacle for half a pond of melty butter?

    Note to self: Go buy corn on the cob!

    You're fun...

Your poem brought back so many memories and made me smile. While I have used flowers and dandelions, I must say I have never heard where you use a corn cob. Good luck in the contest!

    Awe, thank you Faith! Sometimes I just need to use silly humor so a cob of corn seemed to fit into the silliness of it. I thank you for your lovely review and fun comments. You gave me a smile right back! : )
