All the shells are removed from the peanuts,
they are whipped velvety smooth on high,
spread between two pieces of bread with jelly,
or made into a delicious peanut butter pie.
Making peanut truffles for the holidays,
a gift of candy to unexpected company,
today peanut butter cup are my favorite,
Reese's pieces were my favorite at age three.
When I'm hungry I dip a spoon into the jar,
pure heavenly joy as I taste it on my lips,
there are times I cannot help myself,
I lick the peanut butter off my fingertips.
Crunchy peanut butter I use baking cookies,
adding some chocolate chips is a real treat,
I love peanut butter icing on chocolate cake,
peanut butter and vanilla ice cream is so sweet.

Good enough to eat.
Sandy I like peanut butter but not to that extent, but this vividly fast moving happy go lucky poem does. It had me off to the kitchen as soon as I read the last word. I have often written about an "after taste" left in poetry but never peanut butter flavoured !! -
Thank you for reading my poem and leaving a great comment. Great contest. Take care, Sandy
