Look at the goodies, we grabbed up today

All from the neighbors, who live down our way

We just couldn’t wait, we weren’t that strong

We ate all the candy, although it was wrong

Slurping up chocolate, what a hideous sight!

Charlie kept burping, the rest of the night

Til we all made it home, alas, to our beds

But all of the sugar had gone to our heads

We couldn’t sleep, this wasn’t right

To be in our house on this Halloween night

So we all sneaked out, round the neighborhood

Hoping again, we would find something good

 

Writing Prompt: Slurps and Burps – Day 31/31 – Can you believe it!  31 days of writing prompts are over!!  Thanks for all the fun, Michelle!  Now, where are November’s writing prompts?

They came in all flavors

So what’s a frog to do?

Butterscotch, chocolate

And plain vanilla, too!

I could try only one

But that wouldn’t be fair

To leave the other two

In the tin, sitting there

So I’ll eat all the crispies

Whatever it takes

And probably wind up with

A wicked stomach ache

Decadence

Like chocolate melting, simmering
above a low flame
a flavor waiting to be tasted
savored
lips meet
impassioned, indulging
the sweet confectionery
enveloping, embracing
allowing lovers to stray
into the heat
the fire

Cold, creamy frozen confection
swirled in a glass chamber
drenched in warm fudge
oozing down the sides
sprinkled with pieces
of colorful confetti, covered
in billowing clouds
of luscious cream
topped with crimson
