Dear kevs,
I like your last line best. LOL Quite a sea faring tail of going after the wily crayfish. Some forced rhymes but over all a decent write. Do you ever watch "Wicked Catch"?
Cheers,
Winslow

This was an interesting contest for entrants to write about--false teeth. The life of a fisherman can be/is a dangerous job. Being seasick is no laughing matter, although some parts of your poem are amusing. Great job and good luck in the contest if it's not over. Marilyn

You made me smile here! I had no idea that some shark have no teeth? They have a reputation for biting anything that moves in the water and the thought of them using your false teeth is hilarious, love Dolly x

Thanks Dolly for your kind thoughts and review.
Comment from Patty Palmer
The poem is very picturesque! I swear I could hear the sea shifting the boat. I could see when there was nothing In the pots. Unfortunately, the puking was described well too! I have to admit that losing false teeth brought a chuckle!

I sympathize with you over the unfortunate incident that forced the loss of your smile, at the same time I also thank you for the belly laugh your retelling of the incident gave me. I shared your unfortunate tale with my wife and we both enjoyed a healthy laugh.

Comment from Robert Zimmerman
I was chuckling when I read the poem about the teeth going overboard. Then I felt bad when I realized in the author notes that it's a true story. I have heard of people finding notes in a bottle that are many years old and other unusual objects they recover from the sea but finding the right fish wearing your teeth might be a little more difficult. But good luck with that. It's a good story. -Robert-

Comment from Dean Kuch
I gotta admit, Anonymous Poet, I've heard of Gummy Bears, Gummy Worms, and have even managed to eat my fair share of both. But this is the very first time I have ever heard of Gummy Sharks.
But, hey, there's a first time for everything, right?
This is quite an epic write and, for the most part, while the meter was very choppy and inconsistent, the rhyming and near rhymes were pretty good.
Syntax was also a bit off in a couple of places.
I enjoyed the humor in the story you poem conveys.
Good luck to you in the contest.
~Dean
