We who with songs beguile your pilgrimage / And swear that Beauty lives though lilies die, / We Poets of the proud old lineage / Who sing to find your hearts, we know not why ... (James Elroy Flecker)

Sweet Tooth Lunes

Sweet Tooth Lunes

My sweet tooth
wickedly unhealthy, must be resisted 
but not yet.

I am making fudge 
all for me —
lockdown indulgence.

My friend Bev
whose poems I read online
also shares recipes.

When I eat Bev’s fudge —
sweet, smooth, rich —
it tastes of poems.


These can stand alone or be read in sequence. They are alternating Collum lunes (3/5/3 words per line) and Kelly lunes (5/3/5 syllables). 

Created for Poets and Storytellers United’s Weekly Scribblings #29: Writing about food.
