Every time I see your name in my PM box, I smile because I know I am going to get to read a great poem. I was not disappointed. Thank you for sharing this fun and airy poem. I think we all want pretty much the same thing. Although, I 'm pretty sure 'Wedgetables' should be vegetables???)

    Yes, maam.
    Wedgetables are grown where I come from.

    LOL

Excellent free verse form and use of words that make me go aaaaah... You have a light feel in your poem and I like all the various stuff you mention. This is a poem that brings forth emotion and feelings.

Very succinctly, you made what might appear to be an autobiographical poem from your selected list of what you wanted. Did you mean vegetables rather than wedgetables or is that to represent a child's spelling? Good luck in the contest.

    I meant wedgetables.
    Just an idiosyncrasy of mine.

    Smiling,

This is fun. This is adventuresome. This is all about you (again). You, and rightly so, end with the word "me." All you need is a little 'at' me to complete the package. You end with smiling, me and I think you want to say smiling, at me, don't you? If you haven't thought about it then I would suggest you do.
This is just a suggestion. Please, take it with a grain of salt. Nice imagery and your style never get old!
Thanks for the lift of spirits!
Jesse

I give up. What is a "Wedgetable?"

Smiling here...

Light and airy look of wanted whimsies...

Sealed with a kiss with your final lines....

It's all better with your significant other!

This poem, Everything, gives a sort of nonlinear list of all the items which would make up "everything". The list seems to bounce around in time, but finally ends with a "you" and a "me".

Victor,
That's quite a list! Lots of creative energy in there. No harm in wanting but, as you know, wanting doesn't make it happen. Dreaming is the beginning of manifesting, so 'up on your bike' and go get it done, one at a time in order of your choice.
Smiling, me too.

A neat list poem. The short lines emphasizes the list idea and the outline feeling of most lists. The list is all common things that people desire. The final line adds a touch of warmth and humor. The poem flows well and stays on track.

Thanks for a good read.

It is a nice poem to tell us you like to have everything. In reality no one can get everything one wants. the more one wants, the less happy one becomes if one cannot get it.

It is better to be contented with what one has. Under this situation, one becomes happier.

I like how you glorify everything.
Thanks for sharing.
