O my mighty and wondrous muffin!
Thy crenulated sides do me beckon-
Thy delectably succulent stuffin'
Creates a most tasty treat I reckon.
Thy top so brown and so spectacular
And thy chocolate that's so very sweet
Have created my lapse to vernacular-
With irresistable charm thou'rt replete.
The English have perverted thy goodness
With the English muffin as it is called
I think that I shall demand some redress-
Their mad shamelessness has left me appalled.
     And now that I have sung thy temptations
     I cave and give in to sweet sensations.
i took a poll in my blog and the overwhelming majority of people wanted me to write about muffins, so i wrote a sonnet. the emphasis is on beats 3, 6, and 9 and it's all iambic pentameter...i had to screw with the pronunciations of words to get it semi-ok, but i didn't want to spend forever on it.

wow... this is most defiantly the best poem i have read regarding muffins or food in general.
and i did not know such great vocabulary could be used to describe them. and in iambic pentameter to boot?

congrats
