Today I would never want angel food because I am more into chocolate and carmel type desserts!

My Teenage Birthday Cake
When I was a teenager
a long time ago,
there was a dessert to which
I could not say no.
I can’t say the reason why
it had seemed so great,
for it’s not a cake that I’m
craving as of late.
Those times when my birthday came,
I begged Mom to make
-not chocolate or carrot -
but angel food cake!
Mother made it for me,
for it was my wish -
pink-frosted, served with ice cream,
it was just delish!
I don’t eat desserts these days,
but if offered one,
better than that angel food,
I’d want sticky bun!
