It’s a stormy debate
That doesn’t mar the taste
And the silence of a few letters doesn’t help
You still fry the batter
Which way – doesn’t matter
Whole or with a hole, please yourself
The star of the show
Is a sweet round of dough
A glorious gift filled with all manner of guilt
Draft a line in the sand
Decide where you stand
And then use your choice up to the hilt
Some use the ‘ugh’
Whereas others do not…
The charge being neither is wrong
Donut or doughnut
Just don’t eat a lot
You’ll feel wired and not very strong!
This post is also in response to a little mini challenge set by Sharon over at Make Art… Magic Happens.

Hehehehehe…I use the “ugh” in the donut especially when I overload on it 😛 Isn’t it UK spelling with the “ugh” and the US without it? Either ways, that poem was brilliant!

I believe it was always spelt with the ‘UGH’ until a chain of shops opened without it, and then it has been used either way.
Pleased you liked the poem, Shree. 🙂
