She says she knows we can do it.
And here I am.
This is the 19th day of our own poem-a-month challenge at the Imaginary Garden with Real Toads, either in conjunction with or separate from NaPoWriMo which is also going on. Each poet can decide whether to post to one or to the other, or to both.
There was a dessert on the final voyage of the Carnival Destiny this year, a featured dessert called "Warm Chocolate Melting Cake". The men at my table had it every night, sometimes twice. So I am dedicating this poem to my husband Richard Schear, and to Professor John Scott Grey, and sending my sincerest empathy to John's wonderful wife Jo. We miss you both, especially at dinner time.

YIKES! That would be so hard for me to pass up.
I just could manage an ice cream, lol I am not so for sweet things !
It has been a very busy week for ! I had my friend Claudie for 5 days here and we had a lot of fun and also saw a lot !
I'm reading this while having my first cup of coffee of the day. Do you think it's too early to have some ice cream now too?
I love how you used the colors, Kay.
Now I want that sundae! Mmmm....

KAY! - this is truly a GOOD poem. That it is at the same time a total tease causes me to cry "cruel and unjust!"
But in a nice way &~> YAM xx
Yum,,,I could handle one of those,,,nicely done,,a tasty melting,,,
It's morning in Bend! Now I need me some dessert! YUM.
this is making me hungry...
no no no, stop tempting me when I'm trying to be good :)
Sounds very tempting! I can understand why they had it at every opportunity!
Yummy...I have had that dessert on Carnival. Love the poem!
YES! THAT is the kind of melting I can get seriously on board with (no pun intended) Hee hee.
I want ice-cream!
The extra "no heat" caveat made this more of a challenge. This one melted my hot fudge to a puddle waiting to be lapped up off the floor... by me!! Delish, Kay! Amy
how very clever, my taste buds are over wrought with sweet things that you have put forth, Kay...well done and viva la
Chocolate can work miracles!! Smiles.
This looks so yummy ~ Who can resist this ice cream treat ~
argh, skipping lunch in favor of dessert! thanks a LOT, Kay. :)
