A good poem
A good poem! The poet loves the wonders of nature.He is also very able to use these wonders of nature to inpart knowledge to humanbeings.I appreciate his philosophy.
-
Wish they had those flavours here. You had my mouth watering!! Jelly beans bring back my childhood. Loved it
-
Love the black ones. When I was a kid, I use to line them up and eat them in a row. Don't know what that was all about but it seemed to amuse me. lol!!!!!! Anyway, this was just a marvelous piece that really jumped along. The flow was so fast and kinda smiley. Love the rhyme. I guess that's what gave it its bounce. Thanks for sharing this little beauty.

You've put a smile on my face with this jolly tribute to Jelly beans.
The rhymes are great and the happy flow only make this write better.
Great job!

He he i just had some jelly beans of the flavors you mentioned. This is a really great and sweet poem. You have a real talent for taking something so every day as a jelly bean and weaving a delightful and fun poem. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it!
-
Decidedly cheery this has put me in a delightful mood to get up and do some work. My hubby loves jelly beans, but I never thought of writing a poem about them. It was great fun to read.
-
Oh my this is superlicious, too late to go to the shop now
actually I think you poems are like jelly beans different taste and colours as well as addictive.
Nicely done.
-
I now really, REALLY, feel like jelly beans. I havent had one for ages. I forgot that I liked them. Tomorrow I will buy some and say a toast to Legend while I eat them. x
-
Very cute love the jelly beans
Love then all just as they come. look the jelly beans ore on the run...mac

Ohh yummy
This is scrumptious! The universal sweet that everyone loves to eat!
Great poem and wonderful rhyme
-
Not many poems give one a flavour of taste to the soul, and this done it. Wow, you are a gift of licorice allsorts aren't you? Now let me guess, to be this in depth about the jelly bean, I think it wrong of me not to say, you like em, dont you? Wow, are there this many flavours, you've amazed me. Yet there is another side, to think how many dreaded e or added incentives are amongst them all that we can't see?
This was very sweet indeed. Titus

What a great poem!!! I am craving for jelly beans now! A scrumptious piece.

Since being...
diagnosed with diabetes I have had to take Jelly Beans out of my diet with about every other candy except sugerless chololate. Sugarless Jelly beans are boring. But I enjoyed your write here poet. Reminding me of better times when I could stuff my face and not have to worry about taking pills to control the sugar. I could just bounce off the walls!
-
Decisions! Decisons! which one to pick,
Don't dally too long or they'll be gone quick!
A whole array of wonderful rainbow colours and flavours. It's no wonder they are all so appealing to all ages. The manufacturers of these sweet things hit the market right as human beings are 'programmed' to look for variety in their food so will naturally go for thing of many colours ... so you are right, it is something in the genes
-
yummy...lots of sugar...and the combinations of mixing the flavors...coconut and pineapple...but, just say no to the butter popcorn...thanks for the fun write
-
I'm not a lover of jelly beans but babies ... now you're talking

Fantastic! Whoever created the jelly bean is a God in my book! Excellent rhyme and flow as always! I really enjoyed this, you are so very creative!
-
I love jelly beans!!!
-
well there is a certain hue
yes I'm sure the colours blue
they say that this is bad for you
but what the hell am I to do...I'm only human lol
Loved it and of course it's a very clever write in perfect rhyme and rhythm...Dan

Sounds like a Town Crier calling out his news. Jelly Bean was the name of my last canal boat so I could not help but read this.
-
Yummie! I'll have some.... green ones please!
-
delicious
Jelly beans and jelly babies bring out the kids in us all. Bags I the black one
-
I love to scoff a jelly bean
As I survey the silver screen
My favourite is apple (green)
I also quite like Steve McQueen!!!
I think you bring the worst out in me..ha!!!
-
I have in my pocket a giant plastic jelly bean containing "jelly belly" jelly beans, so now I am going to eat a very cherry followed by an aniseed, and then I shall smile even more at your wonderful tribute
Great stuff
Jeff
