A Biscuit Lover's Dream - Or Nightmare
A bourbon biscuit's chocolate crunch
at breakfast, dinner, tea or lunch,
delights the tongue and gives a thrill
though proving that we have no will
to stick to that new diet.
I've seen small children, adults too,
who break their biscuit into two
and, though disgusting this may seem,
lick off the inside's chocolate cream,
it's no use to deny it.
But those who dunk them in their tea
or coffee, perhaps, just like me,
need deft and rapid finger action
if they're to eat with satisfaction
and avoid ensuing mess
when soggy biscuit plops on dress.
Hey, how are you doing? Hope all is well. Get Drunk!!!

Cute. I like the rhyme scheme.

ReplyDeleteNo dunking...

A hardliner.......
LOL thanks for making me smile!
LOL, I say dunk!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you all voting on this one - I think the dunkers have it , though not the biscuit if/ when it has to be retrieved in a teaspoon, for by then it can only be termed a splodge.
ReplyDeleteAs I have some ginger biscuits in the barrel even as we speak, I may have to go and get a cup of hot chocolate to experiment with, W of G...
