Notes About The Poem

Zeppole


   Zeppole...Italian,

        zany, deep-fried bread dough,

             zestfully mixed by hand.

                  Zigzaggy, scrumptious shapes

             zapped with powdered sugar.

         Zenith of fun food! Their

   zephyr sweetens Christmas!

You chose some great Z words, Sandra. I just did not get that last one used to describe this delicious sounding treat! Loved the zigazzy line and zapped with sugar! Congrats in my contest.
