DONUTS AND MILK
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I crave a treat, a sweet delight
one that brings a smile and makes my morning bright. 

Donuts and milk, a perfect pair
my favorite breakfast, beyond compare.

The milk, a chalice, pure and white
a perfect complement to the donut's sugary delight.

Glazed, iced, cake, or filled with jelly
each bite a journey that goes straight to my

Premium MemberWhere Have All the Donuts Gone?

Apologies to Pete Seeger

Where have all the donuts gone?
They are asking.
Where have all the donuts gone?
Nobody knows.
Where have all the donuts gone?
I ate them - every one.
I hope they never learn.
I hope they never learn.

Premium MemberDonuts Come and Go

Donuts come and donuts go,
because they're round, and so
when you take them off the fire,
they're shaped like a rubber tire, 
with a hole right in the middle - 
they ain't no pancake from a griddle.
Where do the donuts go?
Don't ask me, I don't know.

Apple Cider Donuts

Crisp air, a fall day's hue,
Apple cider donuts, warm and round,
A taste of autumn, sweet and true.
Crisp air, a fall day's hue,
Cinnamon and sugar, through and through,
A comforting, familiar sound.
Crisp air, a fall day's hue,
Apple cider donuts, warm and round.

Premium MemberTHANKFUL FOR DONUTS

If we believe life is a circle 
where the end of one journey 
is the beginning of the next

Today I’m thankful for donuts
because…

Nothing epitomizes that belief
more than a donut does

We have this wonderful relationship with our neighbors
who live next to us on our street….
We bring food over to each other…usually something sweet.

The other day we brought them an apple pie…(as PI day was the date)
The next morning they reciprocated with 4 donuts on a plate.

But Deborah was still sleeping…
and I thought…these donuts look good…so

Premium MemberCoffee and Donuts

The aroma of coffee fills the air,
As the donuts sit on the table with care.
The steam rises from the cup,
As the donuts are ready to be picked up.

The coffee is hot, the donuts are sweet,
A perfect combination that can't be beat.
The flavors blend together so well,
It's magical , a perfect spell.

The coffee is strong, the

The Greatest Poem Ever Written

The greatest poem ever written,
made the angels cry...
the oceans fade...
the mountains sway...
and every heart sigh.

But, you would never know...
because I hit an advertisement link below...
and away my masterwork did go.

Vanilla cake Donuts
with chocolate on top
What was a dozen
Is but two in the box.
We truly love them.
Just can't seem to stop.
These Vanilla cake Donuts
With chocolate on top.

This morning’s light seemed to blink on,
suddenly, like an urgent message.
It painted the lone, brittle cloud, racing somewhere
warmer, a shocking school-bus yellow.

There’s a -30 degree wind-chill this morning,
my coffee seemed hotter and more comforting.
I usually keep my windows cracked at night
but this air feels aggressive and sharp as a knife.

The quad, usually bustling on weekend

Donuts are not solely for cops,
While monitoring traffic stops,
Although a cliché
The truth I convey;
They're great too, for kids, moms, and pops!

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
