The Man in the Cake Shop
Spreading germs as he sneezes loudly

The Man in the Cake Shop
The man in the cake shop served me.
I smiled and pointed with care.
A sponge with cream and cherries.
The best one sitting there.
He lifted it up with pride.
He held it under my nose.
But just as he reached for the box.
A mighty sneeze arose.
It sprayed across the sponge.
The cream went flying wide.
A cherry bounced off the counter.
And landed by my side.
I gasped and stepped back quickly.
My appetite did die.
I said no thanks I’m leaving.
And waved the cake goodbye.
I left the shop shaking my head.
Some cakes are not meant to be.
Next time I will just pass by,
Letting his germs spread freely.
