Happy birthday cake for kids with Mickey decoration Stock Photo - Alamy

It lacks every rhyme or reason To bake a cake and not serve it It takes away the season And leaves a bad taste to sit Here's a baker opening shop Who's a few slices short of a loaf Abruptly brings his sweets to a stop To the abandonment, me, the oaf I had looked forward to his cake Is Connie not allowed a sugar rush Yet no reason given to the break Only an indelible slight and hush What I'm driving at is not that sweet But a contest here at Poetry Soup Where the sponsor got happy feet And skipped out on the group His slight, "no winners chosen" ... gang As every criterion followed to a tee Yet his answer leaves mouth's to hang And a body of work to drop to a knee 10/27/22 Tell It Like It Is Poetry Contest Sponsor-Mystic Rose Rose N/A That's all she wrote.
