Sweet sticky cinnamon-sugar
Softly sprinkled onto rich dough
Succulent, lusciously sublime
Harshly twisted, wrongly wrenched
Tightly shaped, truncated
Heated beyond bearing
Rescued, oven-released
Heaven’s aroma, adorned
Consumed, purpose achieved
We'll miss you Grandma Jake! See you on the other side.
