An Assortment

I am very indecisive And so choices cause me strife, Though when I reveal my problem I’ll be told to “get a life!” For presented on a platter, At a friend’s house, after lunch, There was not just one dessert But many pastries, quite a bunch. Thus, confronted with cannolis, Carrot cake and pecan pie And a towering red velvet – Who could choose? Well, how could I? A Napoleon was nestled Next to some dark chocolate square And of course, since we are healthy, There was lots of fruit to spare. So I narrowed down my options; In addition to some fruit, I had part of a cannoli And some carrot cake, to boot. Oh, if all of life’s dilemmas Could be solved with such a taste, Then the problems that exist on earth Could simply be erased!

Such conundrums that you face. If I wasn't worried about diabete's, I'd gladly take your place. :)
