The pack of freshly baked donuts on the table,
entice me with their alluring flavors,
delighting my senses with heavenly aroma.
Classic, cinnamon and coffee work their magic on me,
as my will power melts under their saccharine glaze.
I succumb to the temptation of a sinful indulgence.
I gently pick up one, inhaling its flavorsome redolence.
The sugary sprinkles peck my lips, with a flirtatious tease.
A bite into the soft glazed buns, leaves me in raptures.
I revel in the tantalizing effect it has on my taste buds.
Satiated, my mouth drools a dulcet harmony.
Well, I guess I am forgiven
for committing adultery with my diet plan.
It was after all, just a onetime scrumptious affair!
