Found Object Poem Project -- The Icing On the Cake


photo by Buffy Silverman

You're the Icing on the Cake

You're the best
you're the bomb
you're the highest supreme

unrivaled
unbeaten
you're king (or you're queen)

you're the finest
the greatest
the premier and the prime

you're the jewel in the crown...
we'll keep you,
you're fine.

    1. A couple of my boys shared it for Poetry Friday just hours after I drafted it. It was a hit!
