Well-done and congratulations on your winning entry. You slam-dunked the prompt given. The visual also coordinates well with the text. With my bad eyes, I do wish the font was a bit larger. Keep writing and we will keep reading your good entries.

Congratulations on your win, J. I think you've done a terrific job of writing a complement to My Favourite Things, lyrics. You even ventured into the bridge.
Congratulations on your well-deserved win again. :))

Comment from Teri7
This is a very well written poem about some of your favorite things. I can relate to some of those things too my friend. I love to look at Panda Bears and eat oranges. You used great descriptive words and very nice imagery from the art work you chose. Best wishes in the contest. Blessings, Teri

Congratulation on your win. I enjoyed your poem, JLR.
Your words were well chosen and flowed smoothly. I
could 'hear' the original song as I read your work. The
art choice worked well--so cute. Your lines rhymed well,
and created great imagery.
Thanks for sharing, Jan

This "favorite things" poem, Redux, is a cool cover and parody of the iconic tune. The obvious lean towards nature's best is cool.

Comment from Frank Malley
"Redux on Favorite Things" uses the scansion (and, if you'd like, the melody) to the great Julie Andrews song from "Mary Poppins." In this version the author simply substitutes his or her favorite things for the items in the song, and the choices are apt. There are a few places where the rhythm could be more closely lined up with the original, but overall this is an excellent refitting.

Thanks, Frank, it could use more rhythm- but Al?s, being as I have two left feet and left handed , my lyrical meter is off. :)
Comment from tfawcus
This list of favourite things doesn't quite have the romantic cachet of The Sound of Music original, but it's a darn sight more honest. One or two of the things in your compilation gave me a chuckle.
As far as I remember the original, you seem to have stuck to the rhythm and rhyme scheme remarkably well.
