It is Monday - Poetry Monday!
Diane - who has taken over the hosting of this challenge - and Mimi of
Messymimi's Meanderings - who supplies us with many of the topics - are also writing wonderful, funny,
thought-provoking, ingenious and honestly well written verse. Go and
read them!
Karen of
Baking in a Tornado
has joined us in this crazy pursuit, and promises us at least a poem a month!
SpikesBestMate
often publishes a nice verse in the comments.
Jenny at
Procrastinating Donkey
who has been a faithful participant, is slowly returning to blogging
after her husband's passing from
this world. Let's continue to send warm thoughts, good energy, and
lots of
prayers her way, now that her mum's health is in need of a prayer too.
But still we dare hope that she will join Poetry Monday again.

The theme for today is: Lemon Meringue Pie Day. I never heard of this special pie until today, and did not really know what to do or say. So instead of big versed in praise of said pie, two humble haiku must suffice.
Lemon meringue pie?
Meringue is crunchy and sweet
lemons are tasty
Mix them together
how will it taste? I wonder
I like pies - Let's try!

Next Monday: Be an Angel Day
I LOVE lemon meringue pie! I used to make my own, but haven't for a long time. The frozen ones from the store are acceptable, but not nearly as nice as home made.
SvarSletI'll really have to try - home mad of course ;)
SletIt is years since I have had one, but a good lemon meringue pie (home made) is a thing of joy and beauty.
SvarSletI'm in luck. My baking son took the job - good outcome certain.
SletHere's where I admit I struggle making the meringue part. Usually, I just slide it off and devour the lemon deliciousness beneath!
SvarSletAwesome poem!
Our meringue part did not turn out great either, but the taste! It's a keeper.
SvarSletIt's fun to try new things, i'm glad you liked it!
SvarSletWe like trying new things to cook - an cakes are the best. This one tasted so good, even if we bungled up a bit in the making of it ... better luck next time as it's a keeper.
