The Temptation of a Banana Split
Poem about a Banana Split
Oh, aren’t you the sinful temptation?
Three scoops of ice cream in the gleam.
One lick of that velvety fudge, a sweet sensation,
this Banana split is truly a tantalizing dream.
*
A sugary delight, that whispers “You, my dear”.
With classic vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry, to set the mood.
My spoon is poised to dive into that airy whip, no fear.
I might just savor this, in solitude or in the nude.
*
Toasted almonds scattered, adding a perfect zing.
My tummy will fill up quite soon.
All my senses want to sing.
This divine dessert takes me to the moon.
*
Having a Banana split, a perfect temptation.
With the cherry on top, it’s a joyful celebration.
For I have suffered a breakup,
indulging in this is my best pick-me-up.

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

Oh no, for a breakup will a banana split do the trick? Best to take the entire carton from the fridge along with all the toppings & a spoon to the couch for a binge of tear-jerky rom-coms.
I can resist anything but temptation and, banana splits are very tempting
Dear sweet Banana Split… bringing such pleasure… we just need to limit our encounters 🤗!
Sweet! And very charming. Great job!
I love ice cream but not a fan of banana splits. I love banana, don't get me wrong but I just don't like it with ice cream, lol. Your poem was fantastic!
