Feeding Frenzy

My favorite milkshake, served chilled I reach across the table and - it all spilled Mum's not exactly thrilled Well, at least the pizza's steaming hot I bite right into the center, a tad overwrought Water! Water!... I never knew pizza was fraught Ah! Dessert is chocolate cake I eat way too much - get a bellyache My poor stomach's dancing The Shamrock Shake __________________________________________ ~ Inspired by Jan Allison's 'Mother's Day' entry in Mohan Chutani's 'Minichu' contest, although my poem is neither a Minichu nor a contest-entry.

Well, you've just made my day, BJ. If I remind you of one of your grandsons, that 'Fountain of Youth' vitamin drink I've been trying must be working major miracles! Smiles, gw

Very interesting write, in beautiful format, Gershon! Biting right into the center of a steaming Pizza can be so very dangerous ..... it will burn the mouth that you will have to starve for days together....! :)

Thank you, Valsa. I'm too old for pizza anyway. Can't digest all that cheese anymore. ~ Stomata non grata
