Who Took the Cookies From the Cookie Jar?

I HAVE A CRAVING I WANT A COOKIE!!!

Mmm oatmeal raisin, and chocolate chips,
peanut butter, and Oreos are all so sweet upon my lips
I crave there sweetness day and night.
The power they hold over me just isn't right.
My doctor says I must lose some weight.
But how can I give up my sweet cookies when they are all so great.
The tender sweetness you just can't beat.
And have you seen the diet crap that doctor wants me to eat?
Giving up my sweet friends is gonna make me cry.
And eating this other crap just makes me want to die.
So please if anyone is reading this can you please help me.
Just find anyway to sneak me even just one little COOKIE.
PLEASE SOMEONE SET ME FREE
I WILL GIVE YOU ANYTHING YOU ASK FOR A COOKIE!
So I think that doctor went way to far.
When he stole all my cookies from my cookie jar.

    I love this! Humorous and cute, and not too long. I absolutely adore the ending and title, because of this thing we did in fourth grade. "Who stole the cookies from the cookie jar?!?" Thanks for a laugh.
    Best of luck in the contest.

    This poem is very cute, and it gave me a good chuckle tonight. I think most of us can relate to this feeling of all the goodies being taken away from us. If only we could always eat whatever we wanted and stay healthy, wouldn't that be great? LOL Thanks so much for entering. Blessings, Patty

    HAHAHAH.... Okay, so this kinda didn't flow so well in my opinion, but I didn't think it was supposed to. It was just supposed to have kind of a fun impact on the reader. Nice work! Thank you for entering my contest! (and staying in it)

    Congrats on the numerous trophies. Looks like this strikes a chord in the hearts of many. It certainly does with me though I could substitute chips for cookies or maybe cheese. But I rarely turn down a cookie.

    Enjoy your stick of celery! This was a fun write. Just a couple of typos though.

    hahaha I lol'd at the part where you pleaded in all caps.
    I've definitely felt like this, except with cake instead of cookies.
    Some parts were awkward, didn't flow as well with the rest, but overall good write. :]
    You sound like a mix between Angelica and the Cookie Monster, and by the way, that picture is hilarious.
    Thanks for entering!

    This is so cute! It's filled with creativity and originality!! Mmm..Now I want a cookie!!! Heheh! And I must agree that cookies are veeeeerrry tempting!

    So I think that doctor went way to far.

    Adorable! I'd be really upset if my doctor stole my cookies. I think I'd punch him out! Hahha! Just joking! Great job and good luck!!

    LOVE THE PICTURE!!!
    This could be a great poem if it was trimmed some, so that the line length was more even and the meter more consistent.

    Thanks for entering! I like your last two lines a lot, with the variance from the nursery rhyme.
    I just noticed a few little problems:
    ~ Some of your lines were too long for the meter to be comfortable.
    ~ Some of your punctuation was off - periods in the middle of sentences, or in place of a question mark.
    ~ The rhyme is really forced in places, especially the line "The tender sweetness you just can't beat."
    ~ "To" in the second-to-last line should be "too".
    I think you have a good start here - make a few corrections, and this'll be adorable!

    Adorable, the picture made me go:
    I found it humorous, both the picture and the poem.
    There are some punctuational errors, some places are in need of them but you don't have any there.

    you're a finalist

    This was hilarious!
    There are so many lines that made me laugh out loud, I won't deny it.
    I've grown up being a fan of the cookie monster and you seem like you are one, so I just gotta be a fan of you too, then.

    I think I can relate. I'm not fat (yet) There's only a short amount of time before my sweet little treaty friends get the best of me. Yeah, yeah, I know. I should eat something healthy. But..it's hard

    The picture is heart tugging. I love it and it's another thing that made me laugh. I'm glad you put it up. The background is good, too. It's Rug Rats, right? I used to watch that show "back in the day" and they always wanted cookies, too ^_^

    Try separating some lines into stanzas.
    It makes it WAY easier on the eyes and gives it a better flow, that's what I've always thought.
    Otherwise, you've got quite a write here.
    I loved the thought behind it.

    To be honest, I don't write many funny things. It's usually about love and stuff and it's so cliche, so I'm happy I got to read something that made me laugh.
    Thanks a lot for entering my contest!

    Sincerely,
    dovey ~

    Gowd.. This kinda reminds me of my brother. hehehe very funny the way this was wrote i liked it alot. good job. My favorite part was when you said "And have you seen the diet crap that doctor wants me to eat?
    Giving up my sweet friends is gonna make me cry.
    And eating this other crap just makes me want to die" that was the funnyiest part. thanks for entering my contest i wish you the best of luck.
