A Pickle Party

All the Pickled produce gathered At Branston Manor - if you please! They entered via a staircase Made of Jacob's Crackers and Cheese. The Gherkin Girls and Chutney twins, Who's names are Tom and Mango Compete against the Beetroot Troupe To make the taste buds Tango! The Beetroot Troupe are not alone. They have a wise old friend Zingy Mr. Vinegar. Always ready to defend. The Silverskins call upon The Shallots acapella choir To pack a punchy added flavour In a pitch that can't go higher. The sour Grapes sulk in the corner. They apparently should not have come. Only Pickles were invited. It was not open to everyone. The Eggs got pickled with too much drink. They thought it would be fun To gatecrash the party Just to confuse everyone! It was an event to be remembered. But alas, though sad to say The party ended abruptly. For they were consumed that very day! Written 18th August 2022 For the, "It's A Pickle Party Contest" Sponsor: Mystic Rose Rose
