The lovely Helene of Willow Poetry has challenged us with “What do you See?”.  You may write a poem, haiku, tanka or short story that represents what you see or feel within you.  More info can be found in the link below.


Warm arms embracing

Holding her creations near

She breathes life in each

While smiling over her brood

As they blossom within her

Somewhere, buried upon your dish
Is something a bit crispy, but so delish

Yet, in the center, it’s soft, warm and chewy
And what comes next, makes them quite gooey

No need for the butter, bananas will do
Add one scoop of vanilla, or maybe two

Drizzle with chocolate, drizzle some more
Imagine, now, what your mouth has in store

Delectable sweetness, together, blended
Bite after bite, they all taste so splendid

Don’t hurry through, delight in each bite
Perhaps, we should’ve made more, in hindsight

No matter, there’s always tomorrow to savor
Waffles and ice cream, and their wonderful flavor

It is usually best to be more perspicacious

Then it is to pontificate and be loquacious

Speak from the heart, what matters most

And others will stay completely engrossed

So many faces

We hang onto without cause

Remain blank, unknown
