Long Coconut cream Poems

Coconut tropical oil 
Glistening on my skin
The scent intoxicates me
As I bask in the sun
And drink in the beauty
Of the sparkling Mediterranean Sea

It’s only for a short while
That I will lie here
And only because
I want...

The swollen lake had begun to settle again as the 
brilliant sun seemed to dance between the clouds 
I’d fondly remember the quiet calming warmth 
beneath the trunks of big cypress trees morning 
golfers could...

I love apple pie…this sweet confession off my chest I now unload…
I love it in a fresh baked crust …with whip cream…or al-a-mode.

As I sit down to enjoy my apple pie…before I’m halfway through
I kind...

From the pulled-sugar tux
To the pressed-sugar gown,
The sweet candy couple
Will paint the cake town!

From their sugary heads
To their saccharine shoes,

Stacked under their feet,
First, a...

Belly down laying in pain
Soft music of wind in the willow

Morning newsprint
Wet soaking rain;
Bleak news today

~~~~~~~~~


Play school kids
Stare as I pass;
Curious eyes follow

New age cakery here
Exquisite creations;
Addictive morsels

Beggar in rags
Face soiled and weary;
Pleads for a meal

~~~~~~~~~


Our society is well-fed
Yet the poor abound;
Poverty of all sorts

I brought you a meatball sandwich, he said.
Pleased.
I was going on a diet.
Starting tonight.
But there is no way I can do that now, loving meatballs as much as I do.

ready to be loaded on our ship of dreams.
Chocolate cream pies, and chocolate E'clairs,
lemon filled donuts, and Jelly cream bars.

watching my hips grow out...

Adding whipped cream. M and M’s? Maybe a few.

And the warmed up apple dumpling.
And I especially love the creamy rolls,
Filled with that special something.

Do you like your apple crumble or,
Is your favourite coconut cream?
Is it the...

soft as a whisper, light as air
layers stacked with tender care
coconut spun like winter’s lace
a birthday wish, a warm embrace

frosting whipped, not much too sweet
but rich with love, a secret treat
each bite a cloud, a...

She found him in the yellow pages.
"Do you sell pecans?"

"Yes Ma'am, we do."

"I make a killer pecan pie,
how 'bout a trade?"

"You've got a deal."

"I have two, 
still warm from the oven."

"I'll take both."

She delivered the...
