My Shrimp Spring Onion Roll

People love at first sight
Friends love me for my first dish
With my shrimp spring onion roll 
This consists of medium-sized shrimps
Bacon, beans, ham, egg, cilantro, basil 
And lastly it must be onion
Mix and wrap in a Shanghai roll
Deep fry till look brown and taken easy
Serve a bowl right away freely on the table
People are heartless

Premium MemberA Tale of Kosher Shrimp

Hymie Frankel sat in a restaurant
   in the courtyard of a mall
Hymie was aware for sure
  that the fare wasn’t kosher at all

The Rabbi of Hymie’s synagogue
  just happened to walk past
When he noticed where Hymie was
  he let out an awful gasp

Hymie, friend, what’s eating you
  You know

Jack

The new resident's name is Pam
She's brown and her webbed feet slam
The bowl we live in shakes from her
Kicks to swim, I stray from lure

She is blind, she cannot see
Due to that, she cannot feed
She grew hungry, more and more
Until her will against me tore

She kicked toward me,
Smiling happy
I jumped to escape
The misery she'd make

I

Shrimp Fried Rice

What we have together is complicated.
It very well may be toxic.
But I am glad it happened.
I ask if you love me.
The physical representation of thirst. 
You curve my appetite in so many ways.
I am full in knowing that you complete me.
Such a sensual smell.
My mouth burnt by the hot.
My taste buds go insane each time

Peppered Shrimp

On a drive thru Mandeville one fall,
My Dad stopped at a roadside stall.
He bought red shrimp in bags of 
paper,
The aroma was the scent of shrimp 
and pepper.
Baked so well, there was no need to 
shell,
Popped one into my mouth, my Jaw 
fell.
Fire in the hole I yelled, as my sis 
snickered,
She bit into hers

Shrimp

As I stepped inside the building
A simple smell left me content
I spoke my wishes to a lady
And away with her I sent

I could hear a gentle sizzling
My stomach growled and arms went limp
A buttery garlic smelled appeared
And so I saw the Endless Shrimp

There were only five choices
But five choices are all I need
From the sweet

Hangs With Shrimp

Ariel in the water always takes a dip,
and she hangs around lobsters as well as shrimp.
Her dad is the king,
and he enjoys it alot when she does a song sing.
Friends of different species of Ariel do vary,
and a glad heart she does carry.
Ariel is a true friend,
and will be until her life does end.

Shrimp In Lobster Sauce

Shrimp in Lobster Sauce


Tucked in a booth in back,
the last customer of the day 
cracks a fortune cookie,

sips Oolong as Mr. Hong
locks up. It’s time for his supper.  
Two tall sons bear

from the kitchen dishes
his wife won’t allow 
on the menu. 

Platters of meat
red, green, brown 
huddle and steam 

in the middle of the
