My parents think I'm too old to write poems about chocolate cake, but I think no one is too old for it!
Slather
on that icing that looks lovely pasty
Get
the oven to a bit of heating,
Flour,
sugar, eggs, water, mix and give it a beating.
Give
the batter a taste, good?
Put
it in the oven for some tasty food!
Don’t
mope around, get to the icing,
Don’t
dream yet for the big slicing!
Break
the chocolate; bring it to a boil,
Make
it look like the brown, brown soil.
Are
three-quarters of an hour done yet?
Yes
they are, you bet!
Bring
it out, let it cool,
Is
it done yet? Don’t be a fool!
Oh,
that looks tasty!
Slather
on that icing that looks lovely pasty
Oh,
cut it open for goodness sake,
Cut
open that chocolate cake!
