I Want Cookies, NOW!

This is a poem I wrote long ago but I thought it fitting in response to the C. Beth Blog Giveaway.

Cookies are a way of life
Some have them, some don't
And some crave them more than others
Like me, I crave them all the time
I want to indulge them
And savor every chocolate chip until my cookie is gone
Then there are those who can't afford cookies
So they don't want them right now
And they tell you not to have cookies either
But I want cookies around all the time
To fill the emptiness inside of me
I understand you need a job to get cookies
And that I should save the cookies for later
I love cookies with a passion
And I want to have the best milk for my cookies
So I will listen to those other people
The ones who say save them for dessert
So I will save them for when I can provide the best milk for them
Even though it will be hard to live without cookies
I'll simply have to manage
