Hehehe..I'm glad you chose to write this poem instead of making dinner. I love the "lobster " font.

Excellent entry for the Nonet Poem Contest. You grasped the nonet form well. Nice presentation. Your descriptive words flow well expressing clear mental imagery.

Good luck in the contest.

Very nicely done in the nonet form. I think most of us can identify with this poem. The picture should been one of a well done poem. I predict a win in the contest.

This nonet poem, Sorry About Dinner, has the proper formatting and suggests that the family and their welfare comes second after Fanstory. Did I say 'suggests'?

Hey, writing comes before all else. Especially when the urge strikes. Must address the urge before it expires.

Nice nonet. Meets all requirements although I questioned line 5 for a minute but I found out that (you'll) has one syllable.

Good job.

I couldn't help having a giggle at this beautifully provocative post, I think we all think like that, except I don't enter contests, so it gives me tome to get the dinner on, I share cooking duties with my wife, so it's alright. A beautifully written nonet, good luck, blessings Roy

Well, I do say, you have whipped up a wonderful poem, in Nonet style....Dinner can wait...

Sparkling in your poem:
-I enjoyed the humour.
-Wonderful idea sourcing.
-Progression and rhyme.

Thanks for showing through your writing and good-natured humour it is possible to achieve something if you have the mind, even if running out of time.

A very pleasant read.

Lol, food for the mind indeed. I like that you used gentle humour and a little autobiography to bring your last minute nonet to life. Great fun, and made me smile :-)

I doubt my wife would accept my apology if I promised dinner and delivered a poem instead. She likely wouldn't even read it. I like how yours even used rhyme. And you put a smile on my face this morning. Rod

A wonderful nonet. My late
husband, rest his soul, felt I
spent too much time writing
poetry, and not enough time
on housework, lol!!! My best
wishes for the contest and
may you have a bright and
creative week. Blessings ~
