Buttery Corn Puffs

Buttery Corn Puffs are made up in heaven Delicious and such melt in your mouth fun I'm not really addicted I can stop any time But must be held back at the point of a gun Each night I bolt out of my bed screaming “Where did you hide my Buttery Corn Puffs” It's one of the few pleasures I have left in life They'll soon have to take me away in cuffs I dream of floating way up high on a cloud Looking down on a soft yellow landscape Corn Puffs stretching from horizon to horizon With fairies and me wearing lampshades Such a happy scenario of joy and frivolity Those yellow Buttery Corn Puffs do evoke To feel the great joy and total contentment Before that final sad moment when I croak If Buttery Corn Puffs are made up in heaven When I cross over to that great unknown Totally surrounded from horizon to horizon Much better than a land of buttered scones © Jack Ellison 2015

If Dragon ever gets to visit. I'll send tons of buttery corn puffs and the carpenter Trolls... to put all back together that... UH... Accidently gets broken. But you'll have to hide the buttery corn puffs cause Trolls eat a really whole bunch. Maybe I'll send Grandpa Troll so he can cook more. If you have Trolls, my Hubby will want to come too. And I guess you know by now, where ever Hubby goes, I go too. Let us know when it's warm cause only penguins love snow, tho they too will want to come along.

Both my wife and my son love them! I eat no cereal myself because I am on a special health diet. However, I dearly miss my favorite chili, double-meat cheeseburger and huge plate of scrambled eggs, bacon and buttery biscuits!! A7..

LOL. And here I was thinking...wow, he's come out with a sensible one this time...but to "be held back at the point of the gun?" Lol. Not something for the kids, as usual. Nevertheless, a 7. Love your style, Jack. :D Kim
