ABC poetry. Good for you for trying something new.
For me this poem did not rock my world because of it's simplicity.

It did, however, stick to the rules of the poem. Good effort.

    Your review is fair. Since this is not my forte, I played it safe. I am happy to have received a favorable review. Thank you.

    Apologies for any hurt feelings.

    No, no hurt feelings. You did nothing wrong. Your review was honest and I appreciate it. I learn nothing from someone attempting kindness when honesty is what is needed.

This ABC poem, Healthy Smiles, has the proper formatting and reminds the readers that the teeth are important and benefit both you and those who want to like you.

The author's words are clear, descriptive and creative. I found these words
to give great advice as I struggle with my teeth as a Senior Citizen. I liked
how the author was explicit and gave details in this poem. The poem
flows and connects well. The artwork is awesome!

    Thank you. You are too kind. I am a senior who also suffers dental woes. Sadly, I did not follow my own advice and am now paying the price.

-Good image and nice presentation, nomi.
-It is good to try something different once in a while.
-You wrote a good poem with effective imagery and rhyme,
like "caked on food" that can cause many problems.
-A good concluding line showing the impact on your teeth.
-A good entry; good luck in the contest.

    Thank you, I have a terrible record of failure in contests. So, I will keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best.

    You are welcome. I don't do well, either. We should form a club or a new category for people who don't do well.

Well good for you for jumping in and having some fun with this form while warning us about the perils of poor oral hygiene! My dentist would approve, and so do I...

Sometimes poetry is just good old-fashioned musing off the top of our heads.

Love that!

    Thank you. I must tell you, you and your support are like a shot of healing, a ray of sunshine, a terrific boost to the confidence of one in need. You my dear lady, are a saint walking among lesser beings, and I thank God for you.

    Oh, no. Not hardly that! I do enjoy your work though, and find you to be a very kind man!

    I honestly try. If you exist to only cause hurt, of what use are you?
reply by karenina on 04-Feb-2023
    I agree.

Your poem almost reminds me of a limerick, except the rhyming pattern is totally different. Your ABC Poetry entry delivers powerful, true advice. We won't have the beautiful teeth of the lady in your picture, if we don't take heed to your poem. Best wishes in the contest.

    Thank you. The poem was done on a spur of the moment. I truly wrote it off the top of my head, giving little thought to it al all. I could have done better, but I rushed it thinking I did not have as much time as I actually did.

Well, this was certainly a fun entry for the ABC Poetry Contest, even though it did only state the problem (and give a solution) without giving the reasons why the problem arises. I can see many parents remaining impotent in the face of children's "but why?", and of course tooth brushing at work is tricky, at school it would seem impossible. kay

    I know, but this was only about the contest. Many helpful suggestions are not that practical to execute. Thank you for your review.

Nicely written ABC poem for the contest. It contains some useful advice and would make a good jingle for dentist commercial. It is often inconvenient to brush after every meal but the effect is worth the effort.

Sometimes it is good to go a different route. While this is excellent advice, it is a fun and delightful read. I bet those whose "teeth were not in prime." welcome wearing masks.
Good luck in the contest.
Best wishes,
Mary

Wonderful message of which our dentists and dental hygienists would heartily approve! And those healthy smiles are so important because it's a gift we give to others as well as our own health as our heart health is tied to dental health! So happy to see you entered a contest, Nomi! Best wishes in it!
