Salute the Sweet Tooth Eh

Nutritionist, diabetes or dietician All to be unheeded in my sweet tooth's opinion. For how can I abandon That chocolate canyon? And same goes for yummy chocolate fudge Eh to a trifle could I bear any grudge? Ah treacle or caramel pudding And apple crumble needs no bidding The craving wishes to devour the dessert Few would desert a tasty jam tart! Not forgetting swiss rolls and cup cakes and whatever other sweetmeats the baker bakes. Ah custards, ice-creams, muffins and jellies the only deterrent perhaps, the fear of rounded bellies Only if the dietician would recommend instead to cut down on leafy grassy veggie salad For if there was for it a polling booth I'd vote in favour of my sweet tooth!

A nice sense of humour throughout your poems I have read so far, all very enjoyable and some clever play on words to. Good work.

This is obviously a joke whose meaning can be clearly understood and encouraged. Many times we need things we like regardless of dietists!

Someone after my own heart here. I SO agree with THIS yummy poem. And as for the revelation in the rain, it was pure fiction. Glad you liked it.

hi this is pretty cool and i feel it, but one thing to be careful about the real form of ur couplet. for sure this will make extravagant and sweet to hear as a song the rhyme and the meter... hope u won't take it as discouragement u r talented! have a great day... ELAI (excited to see ur other new works)
