Eggnog

Have a Very Foodie Christmas Poetry Contest
Andrea Dietrich


Each Christmas scooped a punch
Egg milk, cream, and brandy
Enriched with vanilla 
Enhanced with cinnamon 
Ever so a custard
Enjoy it spiked or free
Every sip a classic

Connie Pachecho Date: 12/23/2024 6:57:00 AM The first line of my poem I thought is witty-scooped a punch, which is filled with word play. Think scoop as ladle, a utensil, like ladling a punch bowl. Think punch as with a sting, bite and knockout-which eggnog is. Login to Reply
