Haiku Friday: Rare delights

 


All of us have things we allow ourselves only once in a while-- perhaps because it is expensive, or unhealthy, or dangerous. We give in, now and then, and it's so good.  Let's haiku about that this week. Here, I will go first:

The box of donuts
Calls to me from the break room
I slice off one third...

Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern and have some fun!

  1. Wow, only a third
    That box is calling my name
    Nom, nom... Krispy Kreme

  2. Bacon, egg and cheese
    On a buttery croissant
    Cholesterol treat.

    Son made sourdough bread.
    Siren song of delicious
    crustiness calls me.

    From Antarctic Ice
    Her sweet song summons,”Devour!”
    Chocolate coma.

  8. A rare indulgence
    coffeecake catches my eye
    Ate the entire cake

    Raspberry filling
    and gooey icing drizzled
    Atop, heavenly
