Broken Eggs

Humpty Dumpty cracked my eggs Theses pristine solid becomes a liquid mess With The yellow fat yolk jostling wet In a bowl like a squabble comic pair yet unset Humpty Dumpty left my eggs broken As delicate as a fetus whirling for life Helpless at birth yet destined to live Wrapped in the womb and silent as such Broken Eggs shatters the hope of life Yet a hope to save another; may be from hunger I found it utterly pleasing and truly, very yummy Perfect in beauty in sauce like my honey mummy Humpty Dumpty cracked my eggs, yet Daddy spiced my broken eggs into an omelet He turned those broken eggs into a jellyroll And poured it in a golden bounteous-bowl
