Funverse #5

Don't ask what inspired me to write this...

Mmm-Hmm!

Mmm-hmm! just popped the seal atop a jar of peanut butter,
Oh boy, to peel the seal and smell a smell that’s like no other!
A whiff invades my nostrils, sniff it deep, so tantalizin’...
Just think what joy we’d miss if not for Carver’s pulverizin’!

Mmm-hmm! the tummy monster growls at chocolate chips-in-cookie,
It’s not enough to close your eyes and sniff—you have to looky.
And once you look, you’re done for, for a peek is just a tease!
The monster bares its cookie teeth and roars, "I’d like one, PLEASE!"

Mmm-hmm! just mall-walked by the place where cin’mon rolls are made.
They have to know you cannot stay the course with them displayed
In yummy piles of sweet soft dough with icing dripping slow--
My iron will has turned to mush! "I’ll take two, thanks, to go."

Mmm-hmm! just poofed a bag of chips just inches from my smeller--
I can’t describe the thrill it gives—it makes me want to beller!
To tell the truth, I nearly lost the chance to do the honor:
My sister nearly grabbed it first—I put a headlock on ‘er.
