Premium MemberChristmas Pud!

It’s Christmas day
Hip hip hooray
With festive cheer
And our family here
The feast begins
Amidst all our grins

Crackers pulled, mottos read
Fancy hats upon each head
With turkey eaten
We’ll not be beaten
Enter the flaming pud
Which looks so good

But whence it came?
This pudding of fame
‘Twas a Roman cook
Where first we look
Making pottage of meat and veg
Placing in readiness on a window ledge

By the fourteenth century frumenty it became
Meat with fruit, wine and spices, it was not the same
This soupy dish was a fasting meal
A preparation for Christmas was the deal
With added eggs, breadcrumbs and fruit it changed once more
Plum pudding lasted until banned under Puritan law

The arrival of King George, the ‘Pudding King’
Got the outlawed pud back in the swing
For his royal feast he did declare
Plum pudding would be the dessert fayre
By Victorian days the meat had gone
Enter the Christmas pud known by everyone

Merry Christmas!

Pile fallen coconuts
Pierce shelled core of its meat
Pluck taro roots and boil
Pound roots with honeycomb 
Pour in tin cans with lids
Place in a ground oven
Poi Kulolo dessert

Plump with plums, rich and round,
Plum pudding is a delightful dessert.
Pleiades-like it's a constellation.
Perfectly poised fruit, nuts and spices.
Positioned within a rich, dark and moist cake,
Plunged in portly brandy butter sauce,
Proudly, it's a panorama of bliss, starburst.

Premium MemberTopsy Turvy Pudding

I once made an upside down pudding
But it slipped out whilst it was cooking
It covered the oven base
Was an absolute disgrace
Yet the taste was second to nothing.

Premium MemberUncle Lee eats Pudding for Supper

chocolate pudding for supper? Sure why not?
Shhh.....Differing opinions are not sought
I like my sweet foods, and milk products too
Keep your ideas to yourself, nephew naysayer Stew
I was just going to ask if there was enough pudding for me.
Well that is different, yes, I will share, said my Uncle Lee.

Soft and sweet tapioca pudding
With bubbling, steamy milk
Sprinkled with sugar, nuts and raisins
Flavored with nutmeg spice
Creamy, toasty mixture
Cozy treat 
Smash!

I'M a Pudding Royal of the Robinhood Tree

I can live twice, oh what a delight,
In the day, I'm a bat, taking flight,
With cheese for my wings, I soar so high,
To the moon and back, where cows graze the sky.

In the night, I'm a pineapple, sweet and round,
Rolling down hills, making a giggly sound,
I dance with donuts and sing with a pie,
In this topsy-turvy world, oh me, oh my!

So here I am, living a double life's trance,
As a bat in the day, and a fruit in a dance,
I'm a pudding royal of the Robinhood tree
For in the realm of whimsy, I'll forever be free!

Premium MemberVanilla Pudding

nobody sees you the way I do
in your wheelchair
with your unopenable arms
where everything crashes to a gray twisted landscape

my brother
alpha male
of demon strut clashes
in our shared childhood
once you flipped your hockey stick between my thin legs
           to see how many stairs I'd tumble down
your yells to me to "toughen up"
cursing a younger brother
               "bookworm sissy"
               "vanilla boy"
to expletives that ran like tap water
when proximity was a contact sport

at the care home
to your lips
I spoon in pudding
its dull tranquility 
vanilla 
into a body that feels itself liquid, limbs pliable and porous

I'd like to re-touch our brotherly photos
                 to change them to accuracy
or crumple them like a wasp nest knocked to the ground
for nobody sees you the way I do
for nobody knows you the way I do

Premium MemberI Reach For Pudding

What do I reach for first? the rule of my land….
Pudding, and I quite honestly do not care what brand.
I love chocolate, caramel, and butterscotch too.
Adding whipped cream. M and M’s? Maybe a few.

I warm the pudding up in the microwave of course.
Remembering Mom’s pudding, it was such a sweet source.
If there is left over cake, I will put my pudding on that.
Pudding widens my smile, with a zip and a zap!

They have coconut cream now? What? You are kidding me!
Another snack, which brings my favorites to one, two and three.
Chocolate, and vanilla, wait, I love lemon pudding too!
If I had to narrow down the puddings, I would not know what to do.

The Chocolate Baker

The Chocolate Baker is a lady of stature so grand,
She bakes the best cookies and cakes over the lands.
Other bakers dishes are tasteless and utterly bland,
Sensationally goodness are the works from her hands.

Miraculous wonders from her oven every day appear,
Close to my palate her talents have become very dear.
Cakes, brownies, fudge, puddings and chocolate pies,
Scrumptious delectable aromas bring tears to my eyes.

As Chocolate is a part of my menu almost every day,
Living near the bakery would be a wise choice I’d say.
So a house I found with a little effort and a bit of labor,
Now the Chocolate Baker, a grand lady is my neighbor.

Premium MemberThe Proof's In the Pudding of the Last Two Lines

Trump's another Hitler
            Mike Pence, a racist
          America's a slave plantation
            Accusations, the basest

          Shootings and murders are rising
            So let's defund the police
          Since jails breed hardened criminals
            Let's call for instant release

          Big corporations are all evil
            Their wealth, confiscate
          'Redistribute it fairly' --
            Will Congress take the bait?

          False analogies make us wince
            Illogical demands do too
          Woke-sters run the government
            And they're coming after you

Lit: An Ode To My Bread Pudding

Twas the day after Christmas
and my jeans? They FIT fit.  
I ain't even tripping, 
because ALL the food was LIT! 
I'm not mad at the scale.  
Nope. Not one little bit.
People ask, 
"Whatchu get for Christmas?"  
I say "just Junk".  
They're all completely shocked,  
because my answer is
"just so crass!"  
I laugh to myself, because 
bless their judging hearts, 
they have no idea, that 
I'm talking about this a$$.  
So..., in my mind, 
I drop it AND I pop it, 
and perform a whole 
Burlesque skit, 
and all this ceremony, 
Is because 
my Bread Pudding was LIT!
