I made chocolate pumpkin muffins

Which never toughen

Always having a smooth texture

Along with a rounded fixture

Orange and brown mixed together

From the resulting weather

Of ingredients

The pumpkin puree mashes

Across the mixture’s masses

Maple syrup splashed

Across like creek water; slashed

The wet and dry ingredients

An expedient

Of flavor

The mixture becomes moistened

Hoisted

Into a soft, thick batter

Now rolled into rounded matter

Placed on the tray

And baked through the oven’s rays

Of thermogenic heat

Once it’s done and cooled, 

I taste the food

The savory flavor

Never wavers

A flavor of vanilla extract

Cocoa powder, and chocolate chips intact

Among the various components

Of the muffins; creating enjoyable moments
