Lin Lane Poet Acrostic

Notes About The Poem

         Andrea's Time for Dessert ~ Acrostic Challenge 2

                                           April 4, 2026

Chocolate Eclairs

Classic, the recipe for French pastry
Heavenly to the palate and tasty
Open middle with a filling so creamy
Custard that's called crème patisserie
Observe the delicacy of this treat
Longing to have just one lil' bite to eat
At this moment, I feel myself itching
To bake a dozen eclairs, perhaps more
Exposing the layers that I adore.

Extra delicious, the ganache topping...
Chocolate glaze I'd eat without stopping.
Last bite taken, savored it to the end
Accompanied with milk or coffee blend
If you've never tried one you really should
Rest assured you will find them very good
Sweet morsel is the eclair confection.

Tania Kitchin April 5, 2026 at 12:17 PM Lin, this is so decadent and delightful. I need to go get some eclairs now. Best for the contest. Lin Lane April 6, 2026 at 5:51 AM LOL Tania. They are not terribly difficult to make it home. Just a bit time consuming. Thanks for liking this one.

Terry Miller April 5, 2026 at 9:06 AM Oh my I do d-eclair, brilliant acrostic Lin Lane April 5, 2026 at 10:13 AM Thanks ever so much, Terry. ;-)

Laurentine G April 5, 2026 at 8:07 AM I used to love chocolate eclairs and then I ate two on the same day when someone had brought birthday eclairs in and there were spares :( sad times! I've never been able to go back, such a shame. You inspired me to get on the acrostic train though haha - the nonet train was fun :) a very elegant poem, mine not so much lol Laurentine G April 5, 2026 at 8:18 AM Very thoughtful Lin - I'll be right over :) Lin Lane April 5, 2026 at 8:13 AM I’ll order another Latte so you can join us, LG. We’ll finish our eclairs before you arrive. Conversation with good friends is better than the eats. Thank you.

David Kavanagh April 5, 2026 at 5:12 AM Oh my, Such temptation Lin! I’ve already tried out some chocolate Easter egg, but I’d definitely make some more room for those eclairs, could I push my luck and ask for a nice Latte to accompany them, lol! a devilish delicacy with a glaze to die for, a top contender for the contest, presented to perfection! Cheers David Lin Lane April 5, 2026 at 5:20 AM Merci beaucoup, Cher Ami! Two Lattes coming up, extra hot. Sit a spell and enjoy a pastry with me. ;-). I appreciate your encouraging compliments for this one.
