A Home-Prepared Meal

I fished tomatoes in the lake and picked the pasta from the tree. I shot the herbs as they flew overhead and speared the cheeses in the sea. I took the lettuce from the coop. I milked the gentle cow for wine. I caught wild cucumbers on the run, sheared avocados from the swine. I roped the celery on the range and herded carrots in the pen. A goat gave forth the salad dressing plus some ice tea now and then. The table is set, the food prepared. Plates and forks are set in place. To think I made it all myself: this gourmet fare to stuff my face!
