Premium Member The Brave Brussels Sprout That Saw Christmas Out
The memory span of the average sprout
Means he forgets why the light is out
If life in a fridge will be life without end
Never forget that the dark is your friend

Me, the contrarian, 
	hardcore vegetarian,
Would rather eat wombat snouts
	than brussels sprouts....

Brussels Sprouts
Brussels sprouts for breakfast, Brussels sprouts for lunch,
Sprouties served with iced champagne to make the perfect brunch!
Boiled and drowned in butter, or juiced to make a punch,
Brussels sprouts the tasty treat that I just love to munch!

Now I love to have a pet around but...

A Girl That Lived In Brussels
~*~
~~**~~
there once was a girl that lived in Brussels
she married a man now they're the Russel's
she was kind of a geek
he was more than weak
she with no brains him without muscles

Grey's Spectrum -Brussels, Belgium-
I’m greeted by the freshly laundered dawn,
pale slate linen hung to dry above
a stirring city of collective individuals. 
I cherish moments like these,
when I can step out in to the drying day
without forethought or agenda
and imbibe a city  which has squirmed 
beneath the clouds...

Premium Member Brussels Sprouts
Most unpopular vegetable is Brussels Sprouts
Have taken a survey and I find there's no doubt
Now don't take a fit
For unpopularity they're it
Well, strangely I love 'em more than sauerkraut...

Premium Member Bombs In Brussels
These terrorists caused another conundrum.
They set off a few bombs in Brussels, Belgium.
Numerous innocent lives were blown away
in that city's airport and metropolitan subway.
This Middle-Eastern group wants to perpetrate fear.
Why would they want to do it in a city like here?
Europeans should safely have their...

Long Live Brussels
Long Live Brussels! 

We need to fight back, 
And in arduousness react, 
Without restraint or hesitation, 
And blame in aggression. 

Islam and faith must go down, 
They must subside in renown, 
Islamophobia is more credible, 
Because of terrorism indelible. 

There’s something wrong, 
With religion’s repeated...

On the Train From Amsterdam To Brussels
Roosters gather in a parking lot,
cackling and crowing.
A man is bent over in a field,
fixing his tractor. One long breath,
a yawn, a wide field with horses,
clusters of sheep beneath low trees.
We fly along a creek, short stretches of fence,
a dusty path, a boy on a...

Cockles and Mussels In Brussels
Cockles and Mussels In Brussels

The women wore trusses after having tussles;
They were embarrassed thinking that Brussels;
Did survive;
Came alive,
Only city that can serve cockles with mussels.
(Actually it was London fair city.)

Lady From Brussels
An old lady from Brussels,
Enjoys a dinner of mussels,
Restaurants in the district,
Have hired chefs looking strict,
To ward off her annoying morsels.

They took the flag away

As the UK flexed its muscles
