    Wow I love this form of poetry! I love food so I should try this form :)

    The title of this poem caught my eye because I love tabboulah (just had some today in fact). The poem was like a recipe... I really enjoyed it :)

    I like that you chose "Taste!" as the last word... it really made me feel as the reader that I was about to taste it! Good job :)
