to beat eggs, measure ingredients
which include: sugar, butter, baking soda
or powder, vanilla extract, milk,
and of course boring old flower
oops not that type of flower
unless of course
as edible decorations
there is always the propensity
to imagine bakers as calm
and serene, while the mixer
blends the ingredients
together
however,
what i relish
the prospect
of decoration
with that comes
an intense amount
of critical thoughts
which include
what colour
am i going to dye
this virgin block
of sugar now becomes
something more
which includes:
pumpkins
bumblebees
Groot
Vegeta
Hello Kitty
Tardis
Thoma the Tank Engine
Dragon
lipstick
Pokemon characters
sushi
hamburger
BBQ skewers
however, if you seek
festive edibles
feast your optics
on Holiday themed
fairy cakes
snowman
poinsettia
wreath
penguin
gingerbread house
minus the ginger
when you devour
a delectable hand crafted
item, please offer
a bit of appreciation
to the one
who took the time
to metamorphose a block
of sugar into micro art
relish with glee
even if it\’s your
last of the bunch
flavours are vast
anything and everything
from the quirky
to serious themes
the enormity of emotion
squeezed into a bit size
confection
