(for Her Royal Majesty Queen Elizabeth II from an American well wisher who can only make poems, not puddings, with great esteem and truly Etc.)
pudding pink and pudding white
pudding made with heart's delight
for a Queen so fair and fine
such a pudding made in time
blent of rose and freshest cream
straight out of a Princess' dream
Phillip tasted it in Heaven
said it needed no more leaven
raspberry sweet and hint of lime
chocolate toffee so sublime
coated with a jellied sauce
Christmas treacle
at great cost
here a plum
and there a cherry
let us all be very merry
on the birthday of the Queen
may she hold it in esteem
pudding pink and pudding white
pudding made for heart's delight.
