A Cake

Oh what a beauty
On the table
A marzipan coat
And rosy buds closed
Silver pearls aligned in rows
Green leaves steady on floors
One two three and four
With a garden and seven dwarfs!
Blue streams and waterfalls
A maze for a princess 
In a pink dress
Open the door 
For a child to walk
Towards the hoard of love
As sweet as chocolate balls
Candles burning
Like mother's yearning 
For daughter's gasping
Clasping awing
Dancing around a castle 
Baked with a treasure inside
So creamy so spongy
So deliciously crunchy
Blow me smell me eat me
Feel the warmth
The affection
The mother-daughter connection
Tied around the cake
With a ribbon taut

On a beauty without a fault

What a beautiful poem. You have made me feel that a cake can be more than what it looks like. A very great description.

Thank you so much! My friend has read it and told me he was not sure what the poem was about. I am happy that it has given you something! Thank you a lot!
