Salutes To The Sweet Tooth Ah? Poem by s.zaynab kamoonpury

Salutes To The Sweet Tooth Ah?

Rating: 5.0


Nutritionist, diabetes or
dietician
All to be unheeded in my
sweet tooth's opinion.

For how can I abandon
That chocolate canyon?

And same goes for yummy
chocolate fudge
Eh to a trifle could I bear
any grudge?

Ah treacle or caramel pudding
And apple crumble needs no
bidding

The craving wishes to devour
the dessert
Few would desert a tasty jam
tart!

Not forgetting swiss rolls and
cup cakes
and whatever other
sweetmeats the baker bakes.

Ah custards, ice-creams,
muffins and jellies
the only deterrent perhaps, the
fear of rounded bellies

Only if the dietician would
recommend instead
to cut down on leafy grassy
veggie salad

For if there was for it a polling
booth
I'd vote in favour of my sweet
tooth!

Oh my, you and I think alike in this respect. The sweet treats are so wonderful. Life is too short to deprive ourselves of these tasty morsels. But that's okay, as long as we eat them in moderation (but that's where the problem lies, right?) Delightful poem.

Even the most ardent sweet meat lovers would not be able to put across the subject so effectively as has been done by this wonderful poem. I love the way you have done it. Happy sweet tooth.

Dangerous because you express your love of sweets so well that people will be persuaded to eat more and will grow fat, blow up like dynamite
