Need all of the needed vitamin supplements and more,
Because my own diet can nowadays be oh so poor.
But inflation in these days may lead to a civil kind of war.

I love this so succulent blackforest ice cream log cake.
I love eating for pleasure as well as for my own sake.
I love eating desserts even if it may put my health at stake.

Digging through the sweetest of a fine soft solid substance,
Looking for the velvety amber caramels and chocolates,
But such indulgence all too often renders them as delicates.

We rode on bus with a crescent moon in the horizon.
We sat together in silence with feelings of love uprisen.
We travelled to a restaurant for our spirits to enliven.


Premium MemberOn Our Way To A Buffet

It is almost just like all of my most loveliest lucid dreams.
I am commuting on a bus with the man of my dreams.
On our way to a buffet to eat 'til we're bursting at the seams.

Premium MemberPakistani Barbecue

Dining amongst the Pakistani friends of my neighbour.
Hearing them speaking in their Urdu tongues as all turns to a blur.
Enjoying all their barbecued meats and condiment treats.

Premium MemberSummer Sleepover

It was in the summer we had salsa and chips in the trailer.
Drank all of the liquor on the bed on which we slumber.
Though we were under the weather, we still had each other.

Premium MemberCupcakes

It smells of delicious red velvet cupcakes in the air.
Even though I am diabetic I am also without care,
For I much rather enjoy life as though it is not there.

Premium MemberHoliday Chocolates

Eating chocolate bells until my bulging stomach swells.
Indulging in the sweets which I was given as holiday gifts.
Enjoying delicious small chocolate coins from a mason jar.

Premium MemberCake

A butter cream cake covered in the most colourful of sprinkles.
Rainbow frosted layers full of an irresistible moist texture.
Sweetest of cakes eaten ever, no leftovers after.

Premium MemberWatermelon

Little slices of the most lush and red watermelon,
Swollen with juiciness and a natural multivitamin.
Deliciously filled with glistening liquid in green rind.

Premium MemberEggsential

A bright streak of light shines upon the round white latte mug, 
As I introspect while staring out the foggy window,
A fine display of eggs, home fries, and ham was then laid before me.

Premium MemberBanana Split Sundae

Vanilla, milk, and sugar are so delicious together,
But I add slices of the ripest banana to be sure
This is truly a dessert better than any other.

Premium MemberMore Bread and Butter Please

More bread and butter please —
man has needs that can be satisfied.

As he rumbles down the aisles,
he handles his affairs with pride.

Shopping’s his specialty —
A sizzling offering to his bride
