Plump pumpkin pancakes prepared properly

Pumpkin requires special spices for taste

Pancakes are gobbled up, no waste

Prepared for enjoyment by caring hands, tenderly

Properly topped with whipped cream, brown sugar-laced

I follow a blog filled with a wide variety of great poetry. One of the recent posts was of a style called: Emmett. There are 5 LINES. The first line is 5 WORDS in length. The subsequent lines begin with each of the other words of the first line so that when the first words of each line are read together, they recreate the first sentence!  (see my poem above), And there is a rhyme scheme of abbab.

Brown that ground meat well

Gather legumes of all kinds

Let simmer all day to blend

If you’ve never eaten a molten lava cake, I suggest you give it a try! That is right where my mind went when I saw the flash fiction prompt this week from the Carrot Ranch.

“Nana, pulllleeze.”

Tension filled the air, thicker than the fragrant deliciousness wafting around the room. Naturally, the young ones were more than anxious as they planted themselves on the floor smack dab in front of the oven door.

One would think they had never been fed. One would think they had nothing else better to do. One would think they had no patience.

You could barely hear the timer bell for the chorus of cheers as Nana grabbed the oven mitts and pulled out the baking dishes. It was her joy to bake molten lava cakes for the grandchildren.
