Deb M Poet Rhyme

-Hot Chips Anyone

How anyone can say “no thank you” to hot chips
l do not understand 
The enticing smell so completely irresistible  
For hot chips l would swim ocean and walk land!

Warm and comforting on a cold day
A must when by the sea
Accompanied with salt and vinegar
Or ladened and covered in gravy

At the end of a lovely summers day
Basking in the warmth of the evening
To end that perfect day 
Hot chips please….a-steam’n!

Hot chips just by themselves
Or as a strong right hand man
Always the perfect offsider
So versatile…. eat them as you can

I often hear the salty sound of hot chips a-calling me
“Are you on your way….we are waiting Deb”
Out of sheer politeness “only”…..my reply “Yes I am”
How rude would l be if l said “No” instead!!

In the old days, we would get them after we closed down the bars as 2am and called them Disco Fries!! What a lovely read!!! Happy Saturday xxoo
