Salutes to the sweet tooths

"
Nutritionist, diabetes or
dietician
All to be unheeded in my
sweet tooth's opinion.

For how can I abandon
That chocolate canyon?

And same goes for yummy
chocolate fudge
Or to a trifle could I bear
any grudge?

Ah, treacle or caramel pudding
And apple crumble needs no
bidding

The craving wishes to devour
the dessert
Few would desert a tasty jam
tart!

Don't just fondle me honey, I'm fond of cake fondant
Meringue on my sweet tongue, creamy vermicelli
All that suits my sweet tempered nature
Bear with me if the sweet terms sound redundant

Not forgetting swiss rolls and iced
cup cakes
and whatever other
sweetmeats the baker bakes.

From smoothies so delicious
To whipped cream mousse
All so creamy and scrumptious
Maybe not highly nutritious

Ah custards, ice-creams,
muffins and jellies
the only deterrent perhaps, the
fear of rounded bellies

Only if the dietician would
recommend instead
to cut down on leafy grassy
veggie salad

For if there was for it a polling
booth
I'd vote in favour of my sweet
tooth!

My sweet toot vouches for the toothsome desserts always
The sweet rich goodies and confections , treats for holidays

• I named only English sweetmeats and desserts as most writers here are English speaking westerners but my real fav desserts and sweetmeats are Indian ones such as Kheer rice pudding ...
Gulab jamun (cupcake in syrup.) ...   halwa . ...Rasgulla. ...and
barfi.(Indian crumpet cookie)
...Kulfi (pistachio ice cream)

Hello my friend. Hope you are doing OK. You know I have a sweet tooth too. I am partial to chocolate biscuits, cheesecake, donuts and steamed puddings with custard or ice cream. I just can't help myself. I do try to be careful with the calories, but there is no way I can cut out all the stuff the dietician is telling us is killing us. Moderation is a word I like. Just reading your poem has made me want a sugar fix:)

Good to see you. Hope all is well with you and your family.

Chris

hi zaynab,
what a delicious poem, you certainly are a connoisseur of desserts!!
my all-time favourite is german black forest cake, ahhh! the chocolate, cream & cherries & the italian tiramisu.

but now that I'm trying to lose weight I only eat a tiny little bit of dark chocolate or one dark choc. biscuit called tim tam every so often.
i find if you eat parsley on it's own, which is a little bitter, it takes away food or sweet cravings. so that's what i do now every morning with my coffee, then I'm able to go without breakfast, & only have 2 meals a day.

I love this! As an avid sweet lover, you name off so many with the most delicious sounding descriptions. I have a particular sweet tooth for pastries, eclaire’s, smoothies, ice cream... you wrote the detail beautifully here without being too descriptive and going on and on. They say all that sugar is so bad, but as long as we eat in moderation and take care of our teeth... I don’t see too much of a problem! I think you should make another poem for sweets, but your very favorites! The Indian ones and such, it would really educate people on other sweets. This poem a smile on my face and your poetry seems to have a way of bringing people together. Thank you for sharing! 💙🍭🥧🧁

Aha aye,warm thanks for chocoholic comment.
A sweet treat to be sure Zaynab. I suffer from one myself so this sweet poem is almost too much. I do enjoy the Indian sweets myself as a special treat.
Very tasty!
