My Heart Bleeds For My Beloved Beets

Omg, there were so many that I didn’t read them all..such an amusing time. I did though just comment on Paul’s almond milk “take down” the other day..and told him I read it ages ago but refused to heart it as I actually like almond milk! Anyway moving on…😅 I’m glad things got heated on your end too about the beets.. as I too like these but only in salads. I cracked up 🤣 when I got to the end of your piece and there was a bonus haiku and limerick. So funny. Great job.

This was so fun! And quite impressive with multiple genres--abecedarian, haiku, limerick, etc. I'm definitely a defender of the beets here too!

This challenge was one of the first things I saw on Vocal, and it was so fun! I am so glad this was created!

LOL! 😂 Fantasically fun!

I love beets and your rebuttal. Very clever and funny! I appreciate that you included their earthy flavor as a positive thing, because that’s what people try to use against beets. And now I’m hungry. 😊

Laughing... Great job! 😂🏆😂

I don't care what people say, beets are good, pickled great, a fine borscht I do appreciate.

Donna this was so great!!! I was laughing outlaid from the line “Beet by Donna Renee (not Dre)” 🤣 But of course I couldn’t not read the Abecedarian poem in rap form. Lol I loved the limerick and haiku, you really went to town in your defence of beets and I applaud you! Such a great collection and I love the passion that came through in every word! Amazing work as always my dear Donna! 💜 Thanks for beet-ing up the beet haters! 😜

I don't know what's got into you lately, Donna, my friend, but I'm loving it! Like..an Abecedarian, Haiku and Limerick...you absolutely crushed this. I love your takes because joking aside, your cleverness and wittiness shines through. Well done and I look forward to this getting Top Story. If it doesn't, someone needs to have a word in Justin's ear.

Whoaaaa, an Abecedarian, a Haiku and a Limerick? I can see how much you love beets, lol! I neither love nor hate beets. It's neutral for me. But I prefer them cooked with spices and stuff rather than raw. I'm not a salad person, lol.

And I'm with you all the way on this one, Donna! They're made of sugar! They're healthy candy!

Good God Ms. Donna; aka Marshmallow 'Sticky fingers' I could hardly get by your opening heading to read your rant As a Veg-e-Tarian I even grow beets in my garden and pass them out to anxious neighbors; Pro Bono. Thank you for your help about me placing in the 'History' section - I OU-1  Hi L-Bud - Such a Wuss - J-Bud

I would rather eat beets than drink beet juice for sure 🤮. That’s where I get lost. It’s like drinking bad breath with a hint of rust and seaweed, lol. Nice rebuttal.

Although I wrote about fish, I have to join the anti-beet brigade. Sorry, Donna but my heart doesn't bleed for beets.👎🤮

Loved the clapback poem, beets are ok. They've never made me vomit just looking at them. That limerick is 🔥- I had mine moved to drafts to change that disgusting photo I used - and opps, deleted the text. I can remember some of it but not the middle. 🤦🏻‍♀️

That's a funny poem 🤣 (BEETS by Donna Renee (not Dre) was funny 🤣).. I like beets aswell actually, they're not particularly flavourful (depends on how it's clocked I guess) but they're weirdly nice to eat (I usually just make a little salad with them)

My favorite line - "X-ray your esophagi" LOL I don't mind beets. They are not my favorite, but I like them okay. That is how I feel about many of the foods mentioned, but unfortunately, I cant write an story about my ambivalence..or maybe I can. Maybe that is my challenge here. Anyway, what I came here to say is I love your take on beets! Well done, my friend!

Ooo, are you starting another challenge with this type of poem? That is a really good idea!!

Haha. You tell 'em. I got your back, my dear friend in beet.

Oh, dear. You wanna poke a bear? Okay... Await my response... 🫡

for the record, I love beets with a touch of vinegar added to them, nice backup my friend 😳😊
