Hi Alicia. I enjoyed reading this poem, well worded and illustrated about the temptation of a box of donuts. Favorite line is:
"I don't know what that is, but it looks good."
It brought a giggle. The toughest thing about a box of donuts is--which one do I choose?

Someone has been to Dunkin' Donuts too often. I can see the Speaker bringing a box of varied donuts into the office hardly able to wait till break to share them with her co-workers. Meanwhile they sit there TEMPTING. You have my mouth watering. Rod

Good morning to you and that coffee and donuts greeting! I picture sitting at the office desk just as you wrote in your delicious poem. There's always temptations at work and yes we have to enjoy them in moderation as I speak for myself. Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful Tuesday.

A very-well written free verse poem about the temptation of delicious donuts with all those sugary treats on top is truly something to look forward to with tea of coffee for an energy boost.

Well, enjoy! They look great. You did a great job with the imagery of those treats, sunnilicious. I could visualize each one. You make it difficult to choose just one. I like the alliteration of 'g'. Thanks for sharing--your poem that is. Respectfully with Love, Jan

Enjoy for me. Most of them have milk so I can't and this month I'm staying away from sugar so a double-No for me. But you're young and can enjoy! These lines were my favorite:
"How they glisten, glow, glint and gleam" and
"As churned cream cries itself into custard."

I hope you enjoyed your choice from that vast assortment. I am gluten-free--so, this is as close as I ever come to donuts. I liked your abundant use of alliteration and being tempted! Happy weekend- Joan

    Hi Joan! There's a place that became popular almost immediately upon opening, Ring Baked Tofu Donuts. Everything is gluten-free. I know a few people that go there regularly. Here's a website link - https://ringdonuts.com/

    You're nice. Thank you. Have a great weekend. Hugs, Alicia :)
