Chinese Takeaway

Beef and black bean sauce with rice 
Hungry big wide eyes
Struggle to use chop sticks well
Its just fun to try
Satisfyingly 
I'm so full
Burp!

Hey Emma. Congrats on this fast food hit! I struggled to eat with chop sticks as I read it in Chinese. Lol. Everything about this poem is great and I hope many others enjoy it as much as I did. Blessings, Gwendolen
