A Tribute To a Major Appliance 2

A Tribute To A Major Appliance 2

There you stand passively by the kitchen door..
Apple green in colour, I so love your refreshing color…

Upright and imposing, over all others things…
Comparing sizes, you’re like one colossal being…

Here in my kitchen, you are the king…
For there is no dishwasher that rings…..

There isn’t a freezer to rival your presence…
The stove in the corner, is old enough to be absent…

You tower over all the humans in this household…
Everyone of us diligently engage you for something cold…

Both your twin doors are well adorned with fridge magnets…
Goes to show how much we treasure you days and nights.. 

Even when as a family  out on holidays in places foreign…
A fridge magnet is the one little item we indulge in…

Your upper freezer door opens to a frozen treasure den…
Of fish and sea food, of animal meat, all  fresh yet deep frozen…..

Your lower door, how do I possibly sing aloud your praises…
When things from A to Z are laden into all possible places…

Even when for the umpteenth time we open daily this paradise den…
You diligently preserve and protect the freshness in every single  item….

Here in my kitchen, spick and span as it should  be…
Refridgerator, you are a major appliance here to me…
