Best Skillet Poems

God's greenest, avocados, sliced in a bright red ceramic bowl
Mix them with eggs and they dance with exuberant cowboy soul!

Ever observe them twirling in that griddle?
It indeed takes a Poet to see them do the "allemand left"right in the middle,

The skillet hung near the old wood-burning kitchen stove.
Aside from her family, Mom considered it a special trove.
With that blackened old pan she prepared delicious repasts,

My electric skillet has such a sizzle, through and through 
She makes pancakes and eggs, bacon and hamburgers too
I love the smells she gives me before she is through
With a simple turn of the dial, she knows what to do!

She is easy to use, I...

How lucky are we to live in a world with love as its foundation…
A love that’s universal…but with infinite variations.

For instance…there’s the love we have for our family, our friends…
love between two men, two women…between a woman and a man…
