Parisian Boulangeries-Patisseries Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

ah the boulangeries
iconic Parisian pastries
little rod baguettes
flaky flight croissants
melt-in-your-mouth pains...
au fresh made chocolat boulangeries

ah the Parisian boulangeries
charm in historic storefronts
lit exciting inviting windows
uniquely Parisienne facades
lessons from Paris boulangeries...
wrapped in old-fashioned paper bags

so pretty inviting service exciting
we learn as customers culture lessons
decor is appealingly rustic the breads
cakes strikingly presented almond
apricot bread is sublime we feel fine
as we contemplate purchases wait in line

chocolate tarts are second-to-none
like young children we are having fun
breads reasonably priced fresh delights
arranged individual tarts chocolate tarts
appeal tempt worth any all extra cents
all made with finest loved ingredients

continuing to produce quality breads
pastries cakes eye-catching sumptuous
downright decadent Parisian boulangeries
with one on virtually every corner selling
extra-special baguettes or raspberry tarts
we will never go croissant-hungry Paris

has a concise list of our world's best bakeries
time in Paris is strictly romantic French thus
for quality cuisine we need not spare expense
a recent emergence of string Starbucks outlets
McCafés cannot hold a candle true Parisians
romantic love tasty boulangeries-patisseries

easily resisted managed to withstand globalizations
cheap junk food outlets mass no quality invasions
