Premium Member Gingerbread Men

They can't believe that they exist
Without a god to make them;

A pinch of ash and a dash of dust
Relying on a great one to bake them.

arsonist gave it an ounce;
Four walls no emotion,

Guerrilla ends a frosting douse.

Pleiades I-Imagine

Imagine a snow scene,
icicles and ice cream,
immense hills of candy,
invitingly handy,
indulge in gingerbread,
inhale treats and don't fret,
ingest in heavens spread.

I feel you are clopping particularly fast today
with your lovely mane and your blaze so beautifully gray

Run, run
Lil gingerbread man
Run, run
As fast as you can
You look so yummy
And gooey too

Is Ra Ill Question Mark

Salome just loved gingerbread
But Herod misheard what she said
Who wants a dead head
To bounce in their bed?
So she dashed to the John instead

Cookies

Chocolate chip
Oatmeal
Sugar
Peanut butter
Gingerbread
Delicious smells
Waft from kitchen
To pull you away from your doings
So you can just take one soft warm cookie
With milk
And then share them with the family

Premium Member Ginger-Bred Boy

A redheaded stepchild, he lacked savoir faire; seems all that he did brought his parents despair. He made them some gingerbread, did so with flair. Just for spite, he included some bits of his hair.

Heart shaped, it’s Lebkuchen pride
Heaven’s gingerbread inside
Honey, adding to the taste
Having effects on one’s waist
Helping oneself, not in haste
Holding the bag close for fun
Hoping to get the last one
