Didactic Food

Didactic Food I'm a hard core foodie! Come what may, Down it goes my gullet! Oh no! I don't gormandize, It's just that- Well, you may say- My eyes can't stop feasting And my right hand is not In control of the left hand. And how else can my tongue Savour the delights within my eyesight, If the hand doesn't reach out With all its might? My breakfast- I wish I had three breakfasts Or, maybe, more all day- Only of pancakes- One layer on another and another, And the trays could keep on coming, Bananas and cream or- Just with fruit ice cream. Mmmmm, honey drooling To all its corners Is also pretty fine. Grandma once said Have it light with Lemon and sugar When the stomach Is awfully tight. So, I supposed A six layered pancake Lemony and lemon Refreshed my burning appetite. The legs don't tire, The hands all wired The pan on the gas With quickening fire Sprayed with oil Batter poured Tastebuds alive With tossing it in air Fluffed and puffed Smiles to be seen Miles and milestones away Cinnamon and powdered sugar Its heavenly aroma Fills the corridors. Its good for my memory And my dancing jelly-belly. We figure conscious women Have heard our mothers warn, To keep us in good shape, Let pancakes be garnished With fruits and appetisers. Their weight for sure, Will allow you to add, A little more of these Fluffed up caky delights. Balveen Cheema September 11, 2015 Contest: Didactic Food Sponsor: Tammy Reams
