You could tell by the look on her face
It was something she’d never embrace

Mama promised, if she got it right
A sweet surprise, would be her delight

Dressed up, in white lace and pink flowers
She tried to do it, for hours and hours

Lying down in the grass, quite exhausted
This whole curtsy deal had her daunted

Angered, indeed, by her now dirty knees
She’d rather lie there, than forever be taunted

I couldn’t decide, what to put on my toast

So I grabbed all the jellies, the ones I like most

I layered the jams, into colorful lines

On top of some cream cheese, oh, so divine!

I truly wanted, to add another flavor

But, I ran out of space, so this, I will savor

Bite after bite, the taste is so sweet

Think I’ll make another, I deserve this treat

Sumptuous and Sweet – #poetry #FebruaryWriting

Saw her standing on the corner

Knew he was in for a treat

Took her to his hotel room

This girl, he met on the street

Things got a bit too crazy

He lost control of the scene

She blocked his exit, no way out

The look on her face, quite serene

Plotting his next move, his escape

He walked to where she sat

Handed her a hundred dollar bill

And that was the end of that
