Brown crust shimmering in golden light.
Aromas swirling, warm and inviting.
Kissed with cinnamon, sweet delight.
Each slice a comfort, joy igniting.
Delicate apples nestled inside.
Alluring flavors, tempting my taste.
Perfectly baked, dreams cannot hide.
Pastry and fruit—nothing goes to waste.
Layers of sweetness, crisp and divine.
Each bite a memory, pure and true.
Piping hot, served with ice cream, shine.
Indulge in tradition, share anew.
Each slice, mine to forever pursue.
Welsh Rarebit (cheese on toast if you prefer)
Easy to prepare, so no time wasted.
Lighted candles make it seem romantic.
Sure you’ll love it darling, once you’ve tried it.
Hard times these, so beggars can’t be choosers.
Render a little butter in the pan,
Add some Cheddar cheese and mustard to it.
Reminds me of my happy childhood days
Every time I have the urge to do it.
Brown bread toasted (bit healthier that white)
It’s time to serve it up by candlelight.
There, I said romance would blossom tonight!
I walked through a tunnel
like a finger rubbing around
the inside of a wine glass
round and round
fround bround vround tround
round and round
through the tunnel as a funnel
speeding up
kround zround jround pround
I walked through a tunnel
down to the darkness
down and down
bown hown rown zown
down and down
round and round
dark and stark
I walked through a tunnel
to myself who wasn’t there
September is in the air
Everywhere
Pumpkins and their silly faces Three are in my little red wagon and we are off to the races
Everyone will want my homemade pumpkin pies
Memories of September will take the prize Brown furry squirrels hide their nuts all around
Even in the trees by the pound
Red~yellow~orange carpet of leaves cover the fall ground

J-ust over the deepest sea
A-nother victory will stand;
N-ever ever losing hope
I-n taking the prize at hand.
C-rown of glory is in store for those who'll win the fight;
E-ven in the midst of ocean everything will be alright.
A-fter the deep and dark
M-oments of uncertainty;
A-nother ray of chance
N-eeds to show reality.
T-he sweetest success
I-s when the hill is climbed;
L-et us all reach the top,
L-et us all be
O-n time.
M-aking it through the rain
I-s easier said than done;
N-ovember first early morn
G-od is with us when sin is gone.
U-nless we don't sail smoothly
I-n our voyage to eternity;
T-riumph will finally stand
O-ver the deepest sea.
J-ust one shot at glory,
E-arly morn twelfth of May;
N-o way will you ever let the rare chance slip away.
T-his is one shot at glory,
I-n spite of the opposition;
B-ecause of your true faith,
U-se your determination.
R-emain eager to receive,
C-rown of life in the holy city;
I-t's a must-win situation,
O-ne shot at glory.
C-rown jewel is a treasure,
H-onor, pride, and glory;
E-arly Friday January twelfth,
L-ovely heart is full of glee.
L-et the crown jewel bring
E-cstasy to every mind;
O-utstanding deed is done,
S-ome errors are left behind.
A-ttractive and most valuable,
L-ife is lived so well;
A-im to be widely known as a shining crown jewel.
J-ust keep your head high,
O-ver and above the water;
N-ever quit but hang on,
A-nd don't ever surrender.
L-ose not your conviction,
Y-our hope and energy;
N-either eye will look sad, you'll emerge in victory.
D-rown not in running tears,
E-ven in the river of agony;
L-ook at the sky and think
O-f rising from the
S-ea.
S-o keep your head high,
A-nd take a deep breath;
N-ot for a moment will you sink,
T-rying to regain your strength.
O-ctober thirteenth morn, tell the truth without a lie;
S-eek salvation from God, just keep your head high.
Wedding dreams make lifelong memories
Openhearted promises and fantasies
Romantic whispers and warm caresses
Lighthearted banter in gala dresses
Decadent ambience and chandeliers
Crown jewels with beguiling sheers
Regal ceremony with witnesses
Unfamiliar princes and baronesses
Immortalizing this blessed day of June
Shivering with joy under the sublime moon
Everyone needs a world cruise for their honeymoon
