As they say, "better late than never," I hope. So, late, the party is over, but at least I came along in time to say CONGRATULATIONS on your contest winner. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much for your kind comments. I think it's been nine or nine and a half years since I won a $100 award.

Hah! Crystie!
I can certainly relate to your chocolate predicament!
You have penned a very humorous "temptation" poem, and I bet those sugar cookies were just as delicious... well, almost! :)
Best Wishes,
diane

I've had some amazing brownies at the place I'm staying in Scotland this week for a writing retreat. I think it would be very hard to resist a whole plate of them. I really enjoyed reading this piece and I thought it was really entertaining. Good luck in the contest.

Thank you for your super review and nice comments. I would go to a writing retreat if all we ate happened to be brownies, too, ha ha.

Hi Crystiecookie,
I loved your delightful poem, capturing the humour and indulgence of a midnight snack. The vivid imagery, relatable themes, and playful tone make it engaging and enjoyable to read. Great pic to illustrate the poem. Well done. - Terry

Brownies are a huge temptation that often can't be fought. I like them nice and warm from the oven. They rarely have a chance to completely cool. LOL Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us. Good luck with the c contest.

Warm brownies are great! Thank you for your kind comments today.
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
An absolute delight to read and I wish I had more to give you here. By the time I finished your lovely rhythmic verse, I could practically smell and taste them! And what a visual too! Well done, Crystie! And if that isn't temptation, what is? A strong contender. Well done and good luck! Debbie

Comment from Pam (respa)
-The brownies look delicious!!
-A very nice presentation and
your notes are appreciated.
-I can't imagine eating all of them, though.
-You do a good job with the poem.
-You tell a good story with very good imagery and rhyme.
-It flows smoothly from line to line.
-I like your description, "fudgy smudgy"
and "chocolate blues."
-A very good closing couplet.
-A very good entry; good luck!!
-The story continues to be more
enticing as the walnuts are added
and made the brownies more enticing.

Thank you for your great review. I ate all the brownies on the smaller plate (4 or 5) but not the larger plate. That would have been too many.

You are very welcome. That sounds more reasonable!!
Comment from bob cullen
I love this. If I'm honest though, I must confess, I wouldn't have told anyone. Without eyewitnesses there is no proof. Denial is so easy. In fact, were I your lawyer, I'd argue your eating was a great act of self-sacrifice, you ate so no one else would be tempted to over-indulge. You deserve a merit award. You prevented fat invading the bodies of your friends. You are a hero.
