“A Taste of Friendship”
Desiring to make a concoction
Of flavors and colors and blends
The baker surveys the ingredients
Each ones representing her friends
Some friends are as sweet as sugar
Causing the palate to want more
Others are just like chocolate
The ones we all adore
Then there are the nuts
Meat encased in a shell
Allowing themselves to be broken
So others enjoyment can swell
Flour and spices are ground
To a powder as fine as dust
If you want flavor and unity
To have them is a must
Eggs are the ones who are beaten
To hold everything intact
Others friends go to extremes for you
Like lemon or vanilla extract
Sprinkles are poured out and scattered
For decoration that pleases the sight
For all of you that I call my friends
I hope you enjoy every bite
