Notes About The Poem

3/27/2025 for Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Poetry Contest sponsored by Charles Messina

Dialogue of Breakfast Superlatives

Good and browned, for you, a pancake round,
flipped and stacked, a joy so profound, 
or perhaps, I'll share, a waffle square, 
with pear for extraordinary flair.

Flair, is great for a flapjack of wheat, 
square, wonderful for a Belgian treat.
Profound, indeed, is a poppy seed - 
round about now, that's just what I need

sprinkled upon a lemon muffin.

Thanks Paula, I've made pancakes, but I don't think I've made waffles or muffins.
