HAHAHAHA OMG. MA this is funny, if you hadn't written the snippet at the end I totally would've thought you used this as a metaphor and talking about some yummy German man, lmao.

I really liked this and now I can't stop laughing! How funny. I don't like German Chocolate cake (not a fan of coconut) but this has me wanting some. You crazy woman you.

MaryAnne,

I want to nominate this! it's so creative. I'd never be able to write a poem about cake yet here you are doing it so wonderfully. Like Britt at first I thought this was a love poem to a German man! haha, I was like wow when did MaryAnne meet someone from Germany!?

I've never had german chocolate cake but sounds delicious from what I can see. I honestly can't pick a favourite part but to be honest the opening lines were amazing simply because of the contradicting images you presented (especially since I thought it was a German man and an American woman)

Nice work making my mouth water!

German cake is a very very handsome cake.

I agree this is beyond creative. I thought it was speaking of a life lesson or something, how we shouldn't judge others for their skin color. Definitely love this poem even more since there is quite a few ways to interpret it. But as I read the bottom of the poem it's literally about a German chocolate cake.. and yess they are soo good! Love love this!

When I read the note at the bottom it made me giggle a bit and when I read britt's and everyone's comments I laughed lol

I wonder if I was the only one who took it literal.. I mean when I started reading this piece, I took it literal, and everytime more I kept taking it more literal. Meaning that I really thought you were talking about the chocolate lol, and I was craving some chocolate. I haven't tried this type of cake but I do like chocolate cakes.

but you know, if I did run to the store at that time to get a cake, my mom would say that I'm crazy lol

however, I do understand the feeling behind this piece. It's well written. and I can relate. Chocolate cake.. and milk..hhmm..
