A lot of things came together for this post.
1. A friend made a delicious Tiramisu and suggested the recipe sounded erotic.
2. A 'Baby Shower' for my daughter-in-law turned thoughts to Dr Seuss.
3. Theme Thursday had a food prompt.
So two Tiramisu offerings:
Dr TiramiSeuss
A wonderful beast
is the Tiramisu
Not to be found
in the average zoo.
It has sponge fingers
But nobody knows
If this magical beast
has any toes.
◊◊◊
Tiramisu, for Two
Organic ingredients
Softly, oh so
Lightly whipped
Smooth and creamy,
Fingers then,
Sweetly dipped
Continue then,
Layer upon layer
Until complete.
Lay, to rest,
To refresh
Lightly dusted,
Bitter-sweet.

Yum. To both. And have you ever noticed how many cooking terms would not be out of place in an manual for sado masochists?
ReplyDeleteYummy :-)
ReplyDeleteOh how I would love to eat that piece in the picture. This is probably my favorite dessert. My hubby makes it at Christmas time and I try to talk him into keeping it at home but no he always wants to share it. What can I say but I wish he would make it more often.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed both of the poems, the first is full of delight and the second one is delightful.
A great take on the prompt and thank you so much for playing with this weeks Theme Thursday. Now if I could only talk hubby into making some.
God bless.
I love your ingredients...the last stanza on your second poem is so beautiful. Indeed, I enjoyed both...yummyyyyyyyyyyyyy....
ReplyDeleteMine is here
BLESSED WEEKEND!!!

Very well done, on both accounts!
ReplyDeleteFun and sensuous :)
Oh, dear. I've not had breakfast yet, and already you've got me thinking of desert.
ReplyDeleteI think Tiramisu would be wonderful for Saturday brunch. Followed by some Sherry Trifle.
haha...i love the playfulness of the first one...that is awesome....there is a nice sensuality in that second one...but then again that is dessert...
ReplyDeleteOh what sweet delights!
ReplyDeleteDr TiramiSeuss - lush!

Beyond the absolutely magical Tiramisu we get a sweet and magical serve of verse. Excellent.
ReplyDeleteYou realize you're killing me...
ReplyDeleteI love tiramisu ~ The first one is funny while the second -oh so lightly taste delicious
