cupcake

There it sat, on the high altar,

Back straight and face proud.

A disk of tempered chocolate,

Sitting on top of the perfect frosting.

The frosting is another story,

A passion fruit and mango paste.

That tastes so good on the palate.

And to top the topping, 

A drizzle of liquidy fudge.

The tempting chocolate cake sits, 

Wrapped in a simple, but extravagant wrap.

These are the thoughts rushing through one’s mind,

When they stand outside a bakery,

And stare through the glass window.
