Limerick

There was a fat baker called Bill
whose store stood high on a hill
he lived down below
and when it would snow
he slid on a tray for a thrill.

Premium Member lonely baker

once a breadmaker named peas

his shop it smelled of stale cheese

so patrons complained

and a court arraigned

he'd open after a breeze.

Mr. Sherlock Holmes
has by now studied a good many forensic tomes
as much as they matter
elementary that Watson should ponder every blood splatter.

The pi that’s of math has its day,
But that of the baker, no way.
Though both are quite round,
Less merit is found,
In pies that in stomachs do lay.

Where are the Bakers of Poetry Soup? 
I miss their energy and the queen’s haikus
I hope all is well let me visit their page
For no response from soup mail I made
Bill and Sara are you ok?

Santa Baker was the best chef in the house.
We like his remnants the best said his mouse.
Mrs. Claus did not mind, she did not like to bake.
Santa’s specialty was a Chocolate mint Christmas cake.

RIP Jim Baker

Here lies, old Jim Baker.
Drank like a fish, this dude was no Quaker.
Lighting a gas oven with no pilot light?
Jim was dispatched to heaven in a blazing,fiery flight!

When I listen to the words of Ginger Baker
It dawns upon me
Not all Cream rises to the top
I sure wish someone would drum some sense into that old man
Is there not but one charitable Baker
To do us a favor and cook Ginger?

Premium Member Fred the Baker Rip

In this vault are a few crumbs of crusty old Fred
He got stuck in an oven and got baked with the bread
A very popular man, his friends didn't think twice 
When offered a keepsake, their very own slice.

Premium Member Thank You, Bill Baker

Tonight I received quite a nice surprise
  So many comments, I was blinking my eyes

Bill Baker had so many encouraging things to say
  ~ As if he knew that today’s my 72nd birthday!




  Bill, you sure have gotten my year off to a 
                 wonderful start!

Premium Member The Best Pie Baker

Grandma was the best at baking pies. 
That was a fact nobody denies. 
Apple, rhubarb, sweet potato, cherry, 
pumpkin, pecan, and don't forget blueberry. 
In the kitchen, grandma could be found. 
Her fresh-baked pies were the best around.

inspired by another member's poem

Baker Man

She was longing for her creamy donut
To linger long on her tongue,
She squeezed the sides and to her surprise
It squirted all over her bum.

The big Bermondsey baker man
Shook like an oversized oaf
At silly situations of tasty temptations
As he always liked having a loaf.

The Baker

In the stillness of morning   while stars still shine,  hints the new dawn

Wakes the baker of pastries    and roosters’    cock-a-doddle-do 

I need more sleep, says the baker   …time for a fresh rooster pie!

Baker
of fresh baked goods
cakes, pies, tarts, doughnuts, more
placed outside his store in glassed shelves,
customers stood outside his door, until--
he opened up and sold galore,
till there was none to sell,
sorry said the,
baker.

Master Baker

looking for
just the right dirt
looking to
make brown sugar 
mud

finding 
so adding sweat
and spit and coming
along to take
on shape

kneading
doughish
needing
drips or
drops
more

to keep wet
pliable from
a bun to a
mud
pie

i create as
i speak to
try to make
a likeness
of you

A man who baked bread went out every day
Selling his wares to all who could pay
And freely donating to all who could not.
Such was the man: he gave as he got.
“Just as God’s grace,” he often would say,
“Is given to me, so I give away.”
And giving, he got, and great was his worth.
A treasure in heaven if not here on earth.

Premium Member Becky the Baker - Nursery Rhyme

Becky loved to bake, bake, bake,
One day she baked a cake, cake, cake.
The frosting was so sweet, sweet, sweet,
Made it a treat to eat, eat, eat.

Next Becky baked a pie, pie, pie,
With berries piled so high, high, high.
She set it out to cool, cool, cool,
Caused everyone to drool, drool, drool.

There Goes The Baker


The echoes in cartoons,
The sermons in static,
How every chorus begs us
To wake, or vanish.

Maybe God is a director.
I don’t know.

But the script is too perfect,
And the extras too hollow,
Like the background forgot
How to breathe on its own.

There goes the Baker. 
Popping pills in his blue buggy 
with one red ball and another blue dangling from the rear view.

Premium Member want to borrow my turkey baker

Do you want to borrow my turkey baker?
I have my own I said to the pushy Quaker
You do? That’s news, are you sure? asked my guest
She kept on pushing until I finally agreed to a test.

Let’s exchange turkey basters, I said at last.
I am talking about a turkey baker, she said fast.
She sent him over and he baked our entire meal.
Not popping him in the oven was a part of the deal.

Premium Member The Divine Baker

The Baker’s glazed the brush today
the vine, the grass, the trees
He’s covered every conifer with
protection from the breeze

The Baker’s glaze like clear egg white
drips sugar upon every twig
His frosting covers the mountainsides
no boulder is to big.

He top-dressed all the architecture;
He’s polished the asphalt.
The Baker’s glazed the world today
He’s given it much thought.

The Starry Baker

The moon decided to learn
how to bake,
And stirred up a giant and
starry- filled cake!
He used the soft clouds for a
bowl of white dough,
And baked it all night with a
warm, glowing glow.

He added a scoop of the 
deep ocean blue,
And decorated with shiny,
bright comets and dew.
When the sun woke up
bright, the moon took a
peek,
And fed all his crumbs to the 
birds in the creek!
