If you wanna cookie...

want a good woman bring "right" to the table

if you want shortbread

forget scanning the room for mine

and don't call my name

strip search the pockets there'll be air

possibly a mint with red spokes

but it'll be cinnamon you inhale

can't bake a sheet of chocolate chips

gourmet with the recipe

from a blue ribbon winning cookbook

but I am intrigued by xmas delectables

in shapes of stockings and bells

but...if you wanna cookie

expose stories I haven't gleaned

engage me as the vessel never

to be wasted

and cherish me...when I say I am more

beyond indigo blanketed visuals

sending echoes through r e m

piping chimera for wishes of continuity

put me on replay

and I'll bake you a dozen goods

be your baby

Can I take a peek inside your head? ;-) Very cool read....

Extra 'a' in your title....

[Shirlena]

Honey, I don't even know what's in there half the time. I wouldn't put that on anybody lol but thank you so much Frieda for appreciating my crazy style and for the heads up on my title.

[Frieda P]

Okay, why am I now hungry????? My friend, this one cooked right across the screen and down the page...or should I say baked? Very nicely done Shirlena. Sounds like someone needs to follow the rules if they want to stand n your kitchen.

[Shirlena]

LOL Not so much rules... just be good to her. I enjoyed your commentary Jack...lined up nicely with the theme.
