dream, encouraging, granddaughter,
Our granddaughter loves cupcakes.
Someday, she wants to run a cupcake business.
Someday, she wants to be a beautician.
Someday, she wants to specialize in makeup.
Someday, she wants to be a singer.
Someday, she wants to be a songwriter.
Someday, she wants to go to college.
I’m voting for number one
and number seven.
I love cupcakes.
If she goes to college,
her cupcake business might succeed.
You go, girl!

I have a cupcake
It is a strawberry cake
I love my sweet cake

food, life,
Good things often come in small packages so
have yourself a few bites of cakey bliss. A
cupcake with a swirl of sweet on top, oh my,
now that will take you to confectionary heights
Almost any flavor you might desire can be achieved.
And if you happen to be so lucky you might get a whiff
of delights to come…..if your patient! Be patient!
You know, sometimes it’s the little things in life
that count.
A simple cupcake can give the day a lift,
especially if it has been baked with love. So,
forget the diet and take a moment to enjoy
this day’s simple little gift...mmm,mmm, good!

I've made this trip 1000 times,
For better or for worse,
This wooden bench that wore my spine,
Is where we had our first...
This cupcake and a candle,
Is the most that I could carry,
To celebrate the life we spent,
Everyday that we were married...
In spirit you still have a home,
To lay and rest your head,
Although it feels like Im alone,
I can feel you in my bed...
Every picture has a deeper meaning,
Than it ever did before,
So I look for you in every dream,
Until I cant cry anymore...
And the candle left a year ago,
Leaves me without a doubt,
That when the wind decides to blow,
It is you who blew it out...

Dear Cupcake,
Nine whole months you did bake,
Maturity you now forsake,
A college “safe-space” is your must.
Why not simply grow some crust?
Pursue, for sure, that art degree
But why’s tuition up to me?
And wow! Of Clinton, you did gloat,
Now your tantrum: a lost vote.
So go, retreat to Mommy’s walls,
Brood and whimper, but grow some balls—
Grow them quickly, we won’t wait:
We busily make this country great.
With Love,
Deplorable Dave

confusion, love
when your lips
smiled at me
they captured me
to each his own
i love you like
only little children
love pennies
or cupcakes
that is why it is
so hard for me
to admit that...
even with the
metallic
taste of coins
in my mouth
what follows
is the sweet taste
of a chocolate
cupcake in my
mouth
makes me
lost without you......

“Wings of Change”
I changed my world
As the clouds tear,
So the rain washed away my fears
Reaching beyond the stars
Once on this high
Soaring beyond the skies
Looking down on creation
Looking like sprinkles on a cupcake
Each with their own colours
If you want to feel the thrill
I invite you to come with me
Set your colours free
Let us sprinkle love
On those heavy hearts
Let us enjoy and play
Feel the wind beneath our wings
Reach Altitudes higher than your mind can fathom

I can't promise this union will be easy
I will say God intended it to be treasured
Our love evolved without knowing how
We love each other because there's no other way
Our love is a symbol of eternity
You are the icing on my cupcake
The smile in my heart
The song in my soul orchestrating the melodies that shall forever solidify this union
I love you not for who you are but for who we are when together
Our love is a symbol of eternity

Vividly, you can see that you're perfection is only natural.
Averting commercial tides, while you continue
Licking the uncooked cupcake batter off the spoon.
Excellence on its own merit, without any reused romantic tricks,
Noticing the lonely,
Tend to eat chocolate by the pounds while
Inside, their hearts swarm with bitterness
Nonetheless, all wise women should know,
Eating all your feelings never fills the emptiness
Such atrocities have "hopeless romantic" and
Danger written all over them, hence they must stop.
Applaud your independence and simply love
You.

dedication, love
Today, close your eyes and make a wish
In an instant your wish is granted
Before you stands quite a dish!
Smooth soft brown skin and
Bright sexy brown eyes that twinkle
A body that takes no prisoners!
All dressed in blue just for you
One hand holds a chocolate cupcake iced
Atop one candle has been lit
To wish you Happy Birthday!
May all your dreams come true, my love
Wishing you inner joy and peace
In my heart and soul your essence reside
For safe-keeping to retain
Just wishing you home!
Happy Birthday!! Jimmy Matthew Anderson!!!
All my love, Sunshine*

Bashful boyish laughter
Vibrates through the house
Changing mindset after
Thing wee as a mouse
Playful daring darling
Boundless energy
Eager fearless heartstring
Trumping apogee
Pumpkin eating cupcake
Charming as can be
Promise future heartache
This we can agree
Happy joyful bundle
Fills our lives with love
Candid little angel

longing, love,
It’s my shield of glass,
Seen through and yes unseen.
Entombed by it and more
At bay it keeps the green.
No sand to hold my steps,
Just a mask to stop the strain.
Sheltered from you and more
Reflecting off the pane.
A note, a tune, a song
And others like these three.
Do daily strike a chord
And spark my memory
I’ll keep the window clean
While hoping you do too
And long onto tomorrow’s day
For a cupcake lunch with you.

I love you, yellow tea cup, I love you with my soul!
I love you when I dance, I love you when I bowl.

Yellow teacup’s ears got red, he was close enough to hear.

courage, emotions, feelings,
Sucker for ill fated romance,
I’m dancing an ultra slow dance
on Heartache Boulevard;
I’ve got so much love to bestow
if you’re not mine I’ve got to go;
Or I’ll be permanently scarred;
I saw stars when given your kiss,
fearless and blinded by such bliss
fell down and lost myself;
Thought you wanted a warrior
would appreciate and spoil her;
Treat her like she’s top shelf;
I’m a peculiar type of fine,
fire and ice will often combine;
Lightning on a cupcake;
Took this game and I tore it down
now my king will not let me frown;
No more road to heartache.

love,
I love you so much
I fear
I dare sent not touch
Thee
I love you so much
Just in case you are so brittle
I maybe you may brake
And as you are
To me
The cream inside my cupcake
The frosting and icing as well
The one and only
Who rings my bell
All to hell
That is the how and why
I love you so much

food,
Some days I have a Wheaties breakfast
With strawberries and milk; I love the way it turns pink.
Other days I am in a hot warm cupcake sort of mood.
I warm one up in the microwave and add frosting.
I once ate cold pepperoni pizza for breakfast; that was interesting.
I have also had corn pancakes with syrup,
peanut butter and banana pancakes.
I have eaten bacon, ham, and beef for breakfast.
Some days I have a ham salad sandwich for breakfast
with sweet bread and butter pickles.
More later.
I am going to have one of those right now…..

judgement, life, love, truth,
Sadness is sporadic in midnight
Love is a nightmare and scary
You wake up suddenly
In the middle of the night
Crying and gasping for truth
Only to fine out a dream unsettled
Telling truth is painful and elusive
Lies is like cupcake easy to eat
Believable, inviting and flowery
Deceitful lovers use wishful ways
To trap innocent to succumb beauty
A treachery led to destroy treacherous
Be true in all dealing of relationship
God will bless you and give you justice
Whatever happen your life in the end.
