Yes, our body parts are used all the time. Each of the mentioned parts can all be used to pray and praise God. Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us. I enjoyed reading.

What a nice poem. The picture of the child goes well your words. I like how you used parts of our bodies in the poem. I think sometimes we don't realize how much we do with our bodies Very good job

That is very quaint and pleasant to read. It meets the requirements of the minute poem mostly Innocent and mild Is slightly out; easy fix though with the poet's 'n' as syllables need vowels in order to be counted. Good Luck with the competition.

This work has reached the exceptional level

Ciao !

First off you chose a beautiful pic to illustrate your poem.

I spent time finding the right artwork so I appreciate if others do too.


I love the simplicity , a delightful poem for children to learn about the 5 senses and how we can put to good use our limbs.

PS . Some people will smell with their nose
A pretty nose.

To me this line doesn't flow so well .

Just a suggestion, but no pressure :

Our nose captures the sweet scent of a pretty rose.

An excellent entry for the Minute Poetry Contest. A lovely poem that counts the ways we use our senses and body parts every day without really paying attention. We are blessed if we still have all these functions later in life and need to remember to be thankful for them. At least that is my take away from this piece. :-) Good luck in the contest.

Nice complementary picture art choice. I feel the child's pious repose.
Met the line and syllable count requirements for this poem type/contest. Good luck.
Indeed, we should use our bodies--all its parts--to our mutual good and glory of God.

I have never tried a minute poem. It's a little too tough for me. You have come up with a really good effort, Darla. The third stanza is really good.

    Thanks. I was worried about you. I guess it isn't good enough for six stars.
reply by Paul McFarland on 14-Apr-2024
    Don't feel bad about not getting six stars from me. I give out six stars about once a month.
reply by the author on 14-Apr-2024
    I just thought it was worth six stars because you said I put up a really good effort.
reply by Paul McFarland on 14-Apr-2024
    I hope to give you six stars some day, and when I do, you will know that you have produced something that is really good.
reply by the author on 14-Apr-2024
    You already gave me six stars
    one day.
reply by Paul McFarland on 14-Apr-2024
    That must have been a good day. Now let's get to work on that second six star rating.

I think "innocent and mild" might be one syllable too many, but I could be miscounting. Still, you might want to double-check it. I enjoyed your minute poem. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

How lucky we are to have five senses and lithe limbs with which to enjoy this wonderful world. Your Minute poem gives due acknowledgement to the fact. Nicely done.
