Tongue-Tipper Poem by Douglas Scotney
Tongue-Tipper
The biscuit - a kiss -
the word for which you cannot recall,
but which begins with an M, you think,
is neither Madeleine nor Melting Moment.
The trophy the French give to the Basho* winner
looks like a large one that's pink.
*basho: sumo tournament
