Sweet!
Open door.
Jangle bell.
Take a whiff.
Oh, the smell!
Cookies nutty,
cookies gooey,
cookies crunchy,
cookies chewy.
Doughnuts glazed,
doughnuts drizzled,
doughnuts jellied,
doughnuts twizzled.
Cupcakes fluffy,
cupcakes iced,
cupcakes sprinkled,
cupcakes spiced.
A bakery bonanza
all within my reach.
Impossible to choose,
I’ll take one of each!
Jangle bell.
Take a whiff.
Oh, the smell!
Cookies nutty,
cookies gooey,
cookies crunchy,
cookies chewy.
Doughnuts glazed,
doughnuts drizzled,
doughnuts jellied,
doughnuts twizzled.
Cupcakes fluffy,
cupcakes iced,
cupcakes sprinkled,
cupcakes spiced.
A bakery bonanza
all within my reach.
Impossible to choose,
I’ll take one of each!
