At the Cafe

Everything looks so good...

I’m heading to the Café

to have myself a bite

the tasty morsels that they serve

are really a delight

 

Maybe a sip of warm haiku

with a sweet, honey glazed ballad

a luscious ode, a crisp cinquain,

a zesty free verse salad.

 

Some light and buttery couplets

with a side sonnet and acrostic 

and afterwards, I’ll be naughty

and have that slice of limerick!

Food and poetry... Mmmmm!

Rita, this is such a fun piece! You have blended the meter of the poem and the rhythms of a cafe order perfectly... How original. You are always good for a chuckle and a smile :D

[Rita L. Sev]

Thanks, J.K. A smile is my favorite reaction!

I love food/poetry cross over.
I sent you a RR for a similar topic done by Streamline.
Craving a sip of warm haiku right now :)

[Rita L. Sev]

Thanks, C. Rose! I had actually read Streamilne's piece, which made me think of this one I posted last year. :)

What about the hot brewing tease of erotic-a, the rich blends dark poetry's chocolate with some apple-cranberry muffins acostic. This is such a fun piece. I wish you had made this longer.

[Rita L. Sev]

Mmmm... cranberry muffin acrostic! :) Thanks, Mike!

[Michael G. Smith]

Sounds delicious doesn't it? Like your poem.

All kinds of metaphorical munchies to choose from at the caferteria, although no cricket poetry on the menu ! Perhaps it is an acquired taste ?

Great wit & great fun as ever to read Rita !

[Rita L. Sev]

Ha! I will leave the cricket poetry to you, Tom - you do it so well! :) Thanks!
