So skillful the hands that knead and roll
a bun into a work of art.

So fondly she twists and turns and holds
the buns to be glazed,  so sweet, not tart.

She is a master of the roll of her fame,
able to mold into a mouth watering piece.
Her words are of truth and never lame.
Though Ma'am to her might never cease...

So when you take that warm sticky bun
please know it is made purely of dough.
For any other would be a desire to run
and away,  pell mell,  this Sire would go.

Let the games begin.....

awaiting the volleys to start lobbing

to mount the charge...Ho HUmmmmmm,  just

The morn is new and scents now waft
over a poem that's now a bit off
for sticky buns were raising, see?
The coffee is hot, but just for me.

Everyone who once came to play
didn't stop to think that the day
would bring the buns warm from their bake ~
all slept in late, for goodness' sake!

They slept in late,  save one you know
who stole the buns on platter warm.
He dashed away and heard her crow
something about breaking his arm.

Alas,  the buns were fresh, were hot
and milk with them would be so neat.
A bun to eat, she swore he'd not
feast upon this confection's treat.

A knock she heard upon the door
beyond the kitchen window's sill.
Might this be he,  that wicked bore
who tried to ply and wilt her will?

For in the end as they now cool
she stands and weeps in sobbing wail.
The damsel lost,  now felt the fool
as sticky buns now cool her tail.

A man with sticky fingers ofttimes gets his own buns burned!

I enjoyed this revisit!

She sits and ponders, stews and brews
for now the buns have left her sight.
She grits and groans with this sad news
for this would be her chosen plight.

He sits and licks each finger clean
of that sweet glaze from each warm bun.
A devilish grin, wicked,  mean
now cast upon the rise of Sun.

Oh dear fair wench of greenish eye
who boasts of buns the best the land.
I hate to say,  or hear your sigh
for now I sit,  my plot was planned.

You gave your all,  such courage seen
from one so fair of heart and soul.
I stole them fair and square and glean
the tastiest buns you'll ever roll.

For though they now reside my gut
and you stand sipping just your brew.
Those buns would be best with a nut
crushed finely upon the roll too.

Oh dear Sire, my mind is replete
That you have eaten well of sweets.
My brew hast come up to my lips,
But you, dear Sire, have gained in hip!

So if the twinkle in eye of green
has thou thinking of this scene,
then know that I am smiling, too
and sip contently upon my brew.

The brew perhaps your best of sip
as now the inches grow my hip.
I stuffed them down as one would see
no finer smile from me for thee.

For thee art finest of the fair
of greenish eyes and soft blonde hair.
And from the roller a bun is rolled
as I lay slumbering and bells tolled.

And now the steeple stands alone
as the Parson comes to atone
my sins to keep me from hell's dwell
as pastries rise, no secrets tell.

I've reviewed your sticky situation
This poetic back and forth dance
Now I ask with trembled trepidation...
Won't you please write some more romance?

I think perhaps some rum in the sticky buns this morn?

I love it, Barry!  You made smile on my birthday.  Shhh. It's a secret!  I didn't want another birthday...but sheesh,
the calendar insisted.

Still smiling,
Patricia

When I was a kid. My mom made fresh bread and rolls. She would time it just as I came through the door from school.Butter melting upon my tongue. Yum......
Then at one time we had a small restaurant in the building and on certains days warm sticky buns. We would time it just as they came out of the oven. Another Yum.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

Well if you would stop writing these good poems about things I want then maybe (just maybe) I would stop complaining! LOL. I'll take those 6 years FedEx with my sticky buns!
