FOOD    TALK

Got home at six thirty
Looked in fridge,  at liberty
To choose dietary perfection
Or tasty delectation.

Sitting cold on a plate
My wife’s kasha spoke to me,
Saying, “ Yesterday they all ate
But all you had was a cup of  tea

And my flavour you didn’t taste 
You didn’t savour, oh such a  waste.”
Plate whispered, “Eat me now,”
So I sat down there to chow.

‘Twas  Wonderland Alice’s   “Eat me.”
I grew in size,  felt marvellous.
Maybe Lewis Carroll’s  wife - she 
Cooked too and made him  abdominous.
