Fried Egg
A portly man with manner, droll,
approached an egg out on a stroll,
kindly offering him a ride,
and soon that egg was fried.

Question Of The Ages
Why did the chicken cross Abbey Road?
Because it was there,
but which came first?
Obviously, not the egg,
as it has no legs.
The first chicken to cross the road,
feeling peckish,
not one to throw in the towel,
when told, 'Walk, don't run a fowl,'
and, faster than a speeding pullet,
or so it is said,
was one giant leap for poultry,
one small step

fish caviar versus ant egg caviar
Caviar is fish eggs and I think so blobbish and ugly
Squishy and squirmy looking; they do not tempt me
Mexican caviar is supposedly ant eggs, definitely not free
How they capture ant eggs, I really do not fathom or see.

Difficult Generation
Abraham born before Jesus
They were born holding selfie.
They booked flight from the womb
Are the children of this generation.
They speak louder without sense
Yet wiser than Solomon himself
They sees beyond their parents
With food remnants on their mouth.
Right in the womb they ate wheat
Before they were born they saw you
What is it you know I don't know
Says a

easter egg frenzy
The Easter eggs turned on the baskets in Easter Town.
Refusing to get inside, they began to throw themselves down.
What is happening? Asked a chick, a rooster, and an ugly clown.
They are going crazy, said an old churchgoing lady, with a frown.
She needed them inside those baskets, and it had to be today.
These Easter eggs were

BREAKFAST EGG
BREAKFAST EGG
Thought reaches pinnacle
plunges into its own mystery
cracks open narrow self
an eggshell
passes personal truth
into Cosmic Heart
region of Eternal life
this is all which is, was or ever will be
egg melts into One
time collapses
we eat it on toast
with salt and pepper
Time re-emerges

My Heart is an Egg
my heart, the perfectly shaped egg
oh dear, hear me out, would you?
i can explain it, everything, for you
it's a philosophy only one can understand, will you?
i'm not like the rest
i used to want glasses, freckles, and even braces
i used to rock back and forth like i was in a movie
at some point, even wanted to

THE EGG SAID
The egg said
To the pancake
I’m healthier than
You are, my colors are
Bright and beautiful
Sometimes I even have
Double yokes inside and
My best friend is crispy bacon

A GOOD EGG
A GOOD EGG
Once there was an egg called Jack
But when sad, his shell would crack
And leave him in such a sorry state
With serious worries about his fate
And being so lonely was not a joke
Perhaps even with a dribble of yolk
Some company would be just great
Then, a small golden egg appeared
He thought it may be
