Breakfast Triolet
Who says cupcakes aren’t a breakfast food?
Finger friendly, same ingredients as floppy flapjacks.
Only oatmeal eaters and other such flaxy prudes
would claim cupcakes can’t be a breakfast food.
Neither frosted nor sprinkled, banana muffins look nude
on a plate, particularly to the preschooler who wisely cracks:
But, MomMom, cupcakes are breakfast food!
They’re a lot more funner than flappyjacks!

Hear heat! Love: “Only oatmeal eaters and other such flaxy prudes/would claim cupcakes can’t be a breakfast food.”
Yeah for the wisdom of pre-schoolers! Nice work with this form!!
Delightful. And I confess to recognizing myself in line three!
hee hee “flaxy prudes”
This is adorable, and I love the rhyme of “flaky prudes” with “banana muffins look nude.” Haha!
flaxy. Not flaky. Obviously. 🙂
Thank you all for the kind words. Babysitting and writing poetry CAN work together for good!
