gingerbread treat

care is taken with blender and bowl
to sculpt, create the perfect pair
of ginger lady with ginger man
for this late night fantasy feast
there finished perfection of shape
to the oven now with what we create
wait .....could it be .....bathed in reddish glow
what these mystified eyes do see
what was once separate now combined
the ginger man with ladies hand
they struggle to their feet
to look at me with sad frosted eyes
till finally i did understand
soft music i placed on to play
arm in arm they began to dance
bathed in ovens glow
turning slow an even tan
he took his lady in tow
tears spring forth from misted eye
as i watched this too private chance
of ginger lady with ginger man
first and last together dance
in an evening oven glow
