I want Jaffacakes.

Their smashing orangey bit

Gets saved till the end.

 

I am intrigued. I'd never heard of Jaffa Cakes. They look delicious. Especially the orangey bit!

 

I had to look them up... and coincidentally, my last grocery store trip I bought something very like that:

 

 

 

Tres yummy.

 

 

Orange or raspberry

The taste of summer's bounty,

neatly wrapped in cake!

Come on now, no need to stop, just because we've reached post #51!

 

I know you've got some good ones...

another gem of uncertain value from the Haiku generator:

 

 

elf accelerates

dazedly, mountaintops loom

brutishly, ship blares

 

 

hmmm what is making that elf accelerate?

Sparkling refreshment

eases my summer malaise--

effervescent joy.

Summer, where were you?

The trees lost their leaves too soon

Due to your absence.

New and shining spring -

Yellow and brown and spotted

A tender leaf falls

 

Dark frozen winter -

Beneath the cold clinging ice

Cherry blossoms wait

 

 

Is a man who sits

Facing east in the morning

Blinded or dazzled?

Have I now killed you?

Actually, you've REVIVED it. Thank you!

Both, I think! :)

I am very glad

Since I enjoy poetry

Though some can be bad

Over the wintry

forest, winds howl in  rage

with no leaves to blow.
