Glazed Stuffed Dipped, Sticky Circles of Dough
Donut Acrostic
Delicious and soft, sickly sugary and sweet
Only about 253 calories in one ring-like treat
Nibble around the edges or nosh right through
Until it's gone - now there's only one thing to do
Take another from the pack, give the cellulite a smack
Stuff your face and forget about the grace that you lack
*
Are you ready for another one?
Ready for some circular creamy fun?
Enjoy them in the rain, enjoy them in the sun
*
Ate another one already? Is that why you are unsteady?
Whatever, get some coffee, and your dunking hand at the ready
Everything is better with these glazed, stuffed, and dipped rounds
Sticky fingers, sticky lips, sticky touches, sticky sounds
Oh my, the very thought of those soft, fluffy fried circles of dough
Makes me wanna go to Krispy Kreme, Dunkin' Donuts, or where prices are low
Easy enough if you had to guess, donuts - those glazed, stuffed, dipped, sticky, circles of dough are the best

Thank you for reading. This is the follow-up to my Soft, Fluffy Cubes of Decadence poem all about marshmallows. It is an acrostic poem inspired by another of my favourite sweet treats - donuts.

Oh I loved the acrostic and of course donuts! They are one of my very favorite things!! Some really nice word choices in this fun piece, 'Everything is better with these glazed, stuffed, and dipped rounds. Sticky fingers, sticky lips, sticky touches, sticky sound'. This was really great!!!

Sweet as a donut. Well done.
Mmm! Glazed Blueberry cake donuts are the Sh*t! It's funny how your mouth can water from just reading words. Nice acrostic!
