What's For Dessert ??

Would you Like some 'Sweeties?'
To conclude your evening Meal ?
Just to keep things 'Balanced '
And maintain an even keel.
I'm sure you'd like to try some
But you'll need a good excuse
To indulge in such a manner
And not incur abuse !But never Mind, Let's be Kind
We'll Practice Moderation
"We've heard all that before" you Say
"From the Younger Generation!"Now one could Start, with Apple Tart
That's a staple, I admit,
But I do concede the Brandy Snaps
Are something of a hit.
Yet perhaps a Flan, and if one can,
Some Trifle, Mousse, or Fruit
Ice Cream is one that's always Nice
And "Ye Olde Steam Pud" is Beaut.But perhaps you'd Like Pavlova
Or a piece of Pecan Pie
A Meringue or Two could be for You
Or a Sorbet you could Try ?And If Temptation Beckons
You'll receive a friendly caution,
Or if you're weak, or slimness seek,
We'll provide a smaller portion.But if all of this confuses,
And hard, it sure can be,
You can always go without you know
And have a cup of tea !!
