Cinnamon Hands~


Rolled out..
soft dough,
fingers warm
manipulated,
turned
and sprinkled
with spice,
Cinnamon..again
and again,
brown sugar
heaped,
handled with care,
then hot from the oven
spilling butter
to salivating
tongue.

Your tasty confection,
decadent pastry,
created from the master Baker,
not the Butcher,
or the Candlestick maker.

The Man with Cinnamon hands,
who makes sweet love
on the pantry floor.

From pin to tongue, this poem of yours is daintily prepared rainyday. Fresh baked from an oven comes the tastiest morsels indeed, though the ending may lead one such as myself, to the most provocative of interpretations.  

Cinnamon = Sin-a-mon = Sinner-man = Mr Martini


Coffee, black s'il vous plaît.

Here's to you and here's to me and should we ever disagree, here's to me!

Warm cinnamon rolls on a cold day are close to heaven. And this little poem is sweet praise for the blessed hands that create that bit of heaven on earth. Loved it!~L

The scent of this really comes through from your words and the last stanza is a great ending. Enjoyed reading this.
Thanks
