Prepared as Requested

It does not grow in the ground in a bush, on a tree No animal's beheaded Or fish netted It's seldom shredded Makes a perfect meal prepared as requested Symbol of life in the world Yolk inside egg-white ~ mysteries swirl

So true, However, I am sure you heard that the UN that horrid body, wants to forbid meat eating. So that the only thing we can eat is bugs.. Sorry, I wasn’t born in china. And eating bugs is a poor idea.. eggs are better.

If the UN ambassadors eat bugs, they will surely be charged with cannibalism. lol. Smiles, gw

Fried, over medium. Yolk runny and whites well cooked. Have a good day, GW.

Yolk runny.... Whoops, there it goes. Running right over the side of the plate. What a mess...

now I'm hungry for a poached egg! Yum. I never thought of an egg being a symbol of life, but I get it. Brilliant! Have a pleasant day, sir! Sara
