Jam roly poly, treacle sponge
And sticky toffee pudding head the top of my list
But apple pie, rhubarb crumble
Or a decent cheesecake are hard to resist

Banana splits, eclairs or brownies
Dumplings, nougat, cheese board or mousse
Crème brûlée....

The heavy odor of lavender polish softly opened the door
Peeling paint  family holiday  house timber-slated chairs
Orange-flower water the  tick-tock of the grandfather clock
Pruning orange fruit  trees  which  grew behind...

I had a disagreement the other day
with my pal Floyd who passed my way

He brought his new sculpture for me to see
Floyd's a fine artist, on that we agree

"Wow" said I, "It's an Iron Butterfly"
"He'll...

Penning delicacies
Like chocolate eclairs
Lemon chiffon
Colorful words, affairs
Of the tastebuds
Delectable shares
Light and appealing
Nothing compares
To heavenly puddings
Sweets like prayers
Promising goodness

In poetry and prose
Scrumptious words rise
Detailing mouthwatering
Thoughts, lovely pies
Capturing the silent joy
Twinkling in the eyes
Of those mouthwatering
Desserts who...

The walls were strong and tall.
The yard...

I met a jolly fisherman with hair as white as snow.
Everywhere he sailed his ship, the kids were sure to go.

Joie de Vivre - isn’t life sweet,
especially when you add a treat
like a delicious patisserie,
crème glacée, éclairs, le pan de mie,
chocolat, and le tarte aux fruits?

Eat not just fiber, cheese and meat!
Though you should eat...

Recipe Dilemma

So many different recipes
I don't know what to make,
Some are just mix and set,
While others I need to bake.

So many different recipes
I don't have time for them all,
For every one is a favourite,
To pick...

Come to the table in my father's house.
Why we'd even make room...
for a wee tiny mouse.
The table it grows...
as the need may arise...
you may see a friend there...

If I were an elephant
I know just what I'd do
I'd pack my trunk with all my junk
And move far from the zoo

I'd bring with me my monkey
Best friend and sidekick Preston
If memory correctly serves me
He's...

The light shines but it's. Dark
The tree has skin its bark
I walk into the kitchen and it's closed
There's no food in the icebox or the cupboards
Still let's have lunch
The darkness glares
Is a pound of...
