Just Seventeen Syllables
A blog of short poems. Seventeen syllables each. Whatever inspires.

67. Lotoja
Short flats, mountain highs,
Much chaos in the feed zones.
Best day on a bike.

66. The Stoplight at 21st South
Standing sentinel,
always red. "Halt! who goes there?"
Click. Foot down. "Just me."

65. Lemon-filled
No one asks for it,
But there it is between plain
and sprinkles. Surprise!
64. Plain
It sits unadorned,
surrounded by better sweets.
Best with chocolate milk.

63. The Donut with Sprinkles
A donut for kids.
But when the others are gone,
it will do nicely.
62. The Chocolate Donut
Raised, brown cake. Icing.
Lord of sugary baked goods.
First one eaten. Mmmm.

61. The Pink Donut
A sweet surprise hides
in the bottom of the box,
strawberry frosting.

60. The Maple Bar
In the donut box
a pernicious impostor.
Vile, disgusting roll.
59. Donuts
Round deliciousness...
drizzled in chocolate, sprinkles,
or just plain. So good.
