Gee, I hope that's not the real money. How easy to rob the place albeit a good workout! Your notes make me want to go the place. You should send a copy of this to the restaurant.

Dear Carolyn, well I am useless at meter so I can't help with it:) But I loved how you crafted this one with as much fun and spirit much like that of the Irish.
I enjoyed this light work that actually gave me some extra smiles.
Just lovely:)
Thanks for sharing,
maureen

Dear Maureen, I had hoped you would enjoy this one. Especially glad it gave you some smiles. I think we all have a little Irish in us. (Or Scot-wish LOL)
Thanks for the great R/R
Love you, Carolyn

Wow, that sounds like fun, Carolyn. I'm Irish and love Irish music. I love to watch the Irish jig! It's not perfect meter, but was an enjoyable read anyway. Love the picture, but can't imagine them being real dollar bills! Great poem. Miss Sally. :>D

Believe me they are real. A picture is worth a thousand words or a million and half dollars in this case. LOL
Thanks for the great comments.

This is an extremely interesting and funny piece of work that has been created here. I have often seen places like this, displaying money from around the world everywhere. I have a friend who collects various currencies from different countries. I bring him back notes from everywhere I go.

That's a great idea Tom. These are just plain old American $1.00 bills but so effectively displayed. It was a fun place. And the food was great.
Thanks for the wonderful R/R]

Hello Carolyn,

Real money? No, couldn't be - monopoly money, right??

Have a wonderful weekend.

For real? Money tacked on the walls?

Nicely rhymed with a cadence which enlightened the reading of your poem.

Enjoyed... John

Carolyn;
+ Picture's stupendous and outstanding And is reflective, reference to and complementary to the poem. A very good choice for this poem.
+ Rhyming done very well with the rhyming schemes are in the first line ABAB And the rest of the lines are ABCB. Also the rhyming words on contingent to the meaning and concept of each line which produces a rhyming that is neither forced nor labored and helpful in the rhythmic flow.
+ Enjambment used which is the running on every thought and concepts from one verse or line to the next without a syntactical break.
+ Rhythmic timing, cadence and tempo all were helpful in making the reading smooth, fluid and easy. Meter was intermittent with a different syllabic count for each line. Somewhere seven syllables per line and somewhere eight.
+ Imagery was very alluring and distinct and clear as it was expertly expressive and vividly descriptive throughout the writing explaining the dollar bills being placed on the walls and the ceilings.
+ Thank you for sharing and posting this wonderful piece of poetry about this dining area or place as I enjoyed reading it very much and may the Lord be with you always.
Alex
