I’m a witch of the modern times, Nay my caldron is not round but square, It has four sides square, and it’s called a microwave. No bubble, bubble toil or trouble, with this new Modern age tool, I just add these mystical Prepackaged ingredients, then sit there on my Broom stick and drool. Forget the bat wings, and the eye of nout, I prefer the minute bag of hot popcorn instead, Wouldant you. I’m the wiz of a wiz with this squared box of Miracles, from the mid-night munchies, to the Commercial button pause freeze zone, on the Talley blue screen. There is no more a sacred sound ever heard On this earth, then that dinging bell going off, Then ever buddy scrambling to check out, what Homemade goodies mom has cooked up? Now the crook top is dandy, and the stove Maybe handy for more flavor, or special Occasions of the holiday persuasion, But I prefer the minute satisfaction, And gratification of this microwave Magician. My personal idea of home style cooking, Is pierce the bags plastic top, and stir, Then serve, boy that broke this fevers Sweat, are you ready to eat my young ones. Now in my spell books of cooking perfection, There’s just no place to plug in this modern Tools connection. So these massive volumes are just dust Collectors, but I have a dust buster for This readies problem, I just have to pop Dinner in the magic box first, before I can Solve them. So what will it be tonight my friend, Pizza or Pasta surprise, with an Abracadabra’s Ding, and a POP, I can feed a whole troop of soldiers, Or a hungry family of five. Just call me a modern wizard with technical Support, the best invention of all times My microwave caldron, with its four Squared sides, excuse me please, The bell just went off!!!

Modern technology at its best! Had did we manage without a microwave before!! Comparing it to a magician's caldron in cuboid shape gave me a smile....and it does 'stir' round and round till it's ready. The sound of the bell casts the final spell! Cherl...this makes for a pleasant read! // paul
