With the Minnesota State Fair starting, can we haiku about the food one gets at such events? Here is mine:
Hotdish on a stick
Uhhhh... that was kind of a stretch
Yet I gobbled it.
Now, you go! 5 syllables/7/5, with the winner's bio here on Monday...
Roasted corn, cheese curds,
ReplyDeletethen dairy barn for dessert
and butter viewing.
Feeling like Charlotte's
Templeton, we waddle toward
home, full and happy.
golden, plump, steaming
ReplyDeletebutter drips down my forearm
salt awaits my lips
anticipation
mouth waters, my palette cleansed
juicy kernals burst
Walleye on a stick,
ReplyDeleteToo bad it isn't cheaper,
I'll have another.
butter on a stick
ReplyDeletegobble it up or drink it
either way, really?
Just can't help myself
ReplyDeleteFunnel Cakes at the fairground
Deep fat-fried goodness
She,an arbiter
ReplyDeleteOf pups, turned vat-golden
Mouth festooned mustard.
Powdered sugar dusts
ReplyDeleteNose, chin and cheeks. Funnel cakes.
Snow in early Fall.
-Becky
I just can't pay it.
ReplyDeleteYou want how much for that stuff?
Not a fair-goer.
the food's well and good...
ReplyDeletebut the folks with deep-fried fare:
a feast for the eyes.
Here's a great idea -
ReplyDeleteGreasy "foods" and shady "rides"!
I think I'll pass, Hank.
Heat sits on my skin
ReplyDeleteLike chain mail long underwear
Cold beer--ambrosial.
Once in my cowgirl hat,
Bee stung underarm.Then only
French fries could ease pain.
Cheese Curds from Heaven
O hot melting manna,I
Adore only you.
Nice one,Becky. Very Japanese.

My eyes bigger than stomach
Please pass the Pepto....
