In a Hot Spot

Jeepers it is hot in here
I just burned my derriere
But I don't mind at all because
I am being cooked with love
Tenderly simmered in a pot
My skin fell off--I am so hot
I feel naked but so free
Juiciness all around me
In a bath of smokey steam
I'll soon be a yummy dream
Here come more friends to hang out
Seasoning poured out of a spout
Flavors seeping all around
Now here comes a swishing sound
Being twirled with a big spoon
In somebody's belly soon
I will be all nice and warm
Until the whole pot is gone
Of a great tomato sauce
Over spaghetti I am tossed

You are filled with mischief and style. Loved this bit of whimsy. Can't imagine where the lines came from, but you've definitely tapped into a source and added flavors all your own.

Robin, I neglected to respond to a comment you made several years ago. I was not as social as I am today. In any case, you have taken on a unique perspective here, and I applaud your ability to write with vegetable empathy.
