National Donut Day: A Hasty and Tasty Haiku

  Cylindrical rings,

Your existence cheers my life—

From earliest youth 

Alexandria,

Location where we first met

I was but a child.

Each high school morning,

Diet Coke in a Big Gulp

Two from Pam E K’s

My engagement tale

Perhaps not so typical

Includes a dozen

Arranged on a plate

A velvet box in middle

“Pick your favorite!”

Dunkin’ Donuts’ best

Powdered, with crème in center

Almost missed the ring!

Richmond, Virginia

Ideal for Doughnut Lovers

How blessed to live here!

Krispy Kreme on Broad Street

Chocolate iced with sprinkles 

How can one resist?

Daily drive-thru trips

Fat stoker of my breast milk

You kept twins alive

Then, Dixie Donuts

So convenient after church

Communion dessert

Who knew Sugar Shack

Would bring so much to table?

Maple bacon, please.

Daily Facebook prompts

Earn participants freebies

Treats and staff, so sweet.

Today is June 5th

It’s National Doughnut Day

Cause to celebrate!
