Slurping My Soup

Do you slurp when eating your soup It's perfectly okay you know In the rules for soup, especially tomato Slurping should be audible I'm told Also messing up a clean white tuxedo Is also a law of the kitchen To proudly display it for a couple of days Not allowed to blame it on a kitten Definitely a sign of aristocracy it seems Servants used to wipe up the mess You'd never think of cleaning it up yourself Beneath your standing I guess Eating your soup without some slurping Is banned in certain countries Also must dribble it's part of the scene Helps if you're wearing just undies

Dear Jack, your wonderful playful poem about soup etiquette had me smiling from ear to ear! Your humorous take on the "rules" of slurping and spilling soup is entertaining and clever. It's refreshing to find joy in life's simple pleasures, even in something as mundane as eating soup. Thank you for brightening my day with your delightful words! - Blessings, Daniel
