He was a terrific and skilled Italian chef.
Forty years ago, he took his final breath.
On June the 21st of 1985, Ettore Boiardi passed away.
He was born in Borgonovo Val Tidone, Italy and moved to the USA.
At the age of 16, he arrived at Ellis Island on a French ship.
Now millions are eating his food because he took that trip.
He turned out to be a businessman who was shrewd.
People ate at his restaurant and they loved his food.
It was natural causes that caused Boiardi's death.
Millions are thankful because of that Italian chef. [Dedicated to Ettore Boiardi (1897-1985) who died on June 21, 1985]

This is written well, even though I guess the comparison sort of escaped me. Sounded like a love poem.
So, I have a question for you. Why is it that you apparently only know how to write poems, but not read them?
I shall quote a good YPDC buddy:
"You may think you are the world's gift to poetry but most likely you are not because if all you care about is your own writes then you're missing the big picture."
How about instead of just coming here to post your maximum poems a day, without commenting, put some of that time aside and read/comment on some of our other talented poets here at ol' YPDC. It's not maveli.com!
Could you imagine if we were all like this, just posting poems like you do and not reading them, how messed up that is? It doesn't make sense to simply write but not read and share your thoughts.
It's crazy.
Thanks,
Tim |

I agree with Tim on both ideas. I think you started off with your premise, and then changed it as you thought. It's well-written despite being confusing.
But as Tim said, interactivity, community, take part. |
