~ Let's Have a Parade ~
A Shriner drives his little car
Hairpin turns upon a star
Red-fezzed Turks play guitars
Let’s have a parade…
A marching band is next in line
Buglers trumpet notes so fine
Cymbals crashing all the time
Let’s have a parade…
Egyptian camels with two humps
Maneuver over traffic bumps
Circus dogs through hoops do jump
Let’s have a parade…
Little Leaguers, baseball teams
Young majorettes live their dreams
Confectioners dispense mint creams
Let’s have a parade…
A special occasion is not needed
If my advice would just be heeded
Camaraderie and Joy to be seeded ~
Let’s have a parade…

I always get up early. Early, early, early and it’s Saturday morning. So I scooted over to “Donut Crazy” and got myself 12 sugar donuts (and a selection of treats for my suitemates - I’m NOT suicidal.)
At 8am, I’m in the suite common area, on the couch, binging “Ladybug and Cat Noir” on my iPad and I realize that Leong, one of my suitemates, is sipping her coffee and staring at me like I’m a bad pet. I look around to find myself sitting in a shower of confectioners’ sugar speckles.
“In my defense, I was left unsupervised.” I disclaim.

Copperfire brunette desire
Blondness bold blackjet, yet;
Full hearted female's' sweet
And sound, patient enduring
Or doing the rounds!
red blooded girls seeking
Alpha men, or security minded
Hearth-side friends. The Bakers winemakers writers confectioners and cakesters
Multitasking always asking
Bright eyes with; teasing laughing!
The fashionistas your skin & blisters I admire.' all of them' '
their innate ken, without such as them; we would be as men indeed poor!
Nations need their balance Crucial valuable; lovable
Women; girls and ladies
Living true, through life’s trials misgivings finding all Joys
In daily living.

once this old guy robert naffy
wore clothing made of bright taffy
so whenever it rained
confectioners complained
his suits though tasty were drafty.

Chocolate Delight, what a sight.
I’m ecstatic to see it on my plate.
It is truly the most appetizing
dessert which I have had of late.
Four layers in all, butter, sugar, pecans,
mixed into flour to form a crust.
Cream cheese, confectioners sugar,
chocolate pudding is a must.
In a culinary delight nine by twelve,
mixed a certain way to layer heaven.
Topped generously with whipped cream.
Compliments come beyond reason.

As if floating thru a powdered sugar mist,
Luna's sweet vibration,a confectioners kiss.....
moulding exquisite layers of soma's bliss,
remiss nought experience which reminisce....
Far away dreams lit upon starlight waves,
only to be realized within life stream raves
desire of the beauty in which it gave,
moments which engender,then tenderly enslave.....
Lost temporarily enchanted by it's spell,
full moon swoons as it rises and swells......
