Where all the food is good (and cheap, and free and made by me) And all the chairs are wood My restaurant it has no name it gets its fame from mouth to mouth silent approval I was still small And food was scarce I always cried Myself to sleep Or apathetic sat aside And fought over that one crumb The fragrance Of the herbs I use (I hand out in abundancy In soup or icecream) Make mouths water Make eyes large Make hearts happy Makes everyone a child (That knows no pain That doesn't know what hunger means) *** September 15, 2016 3d place in contest: My imaginary restaurant Sponsor: Silent One
