A Mothers Dilemma

OK! I shouted please tell me what you want
Or am I to guess yet again
How am I suppose to know
This is all to much of a strain,

Just do me anything mum
That's all I ever hear
he never knows what he wants to eat
that's very clear,

What about lasagna?
Or maybe spaghetti bolognese?
Just do me sausages on toast mum!
So I make it in a sort of a daze,

Sausages on toast it is then
What sauce? red or brown?
Not a word came back from the lounge,
Just a bang and a blow up sound,

At last the dinner was sorted
And I shout it's ready come on, "but no reply"
As I went to the lounge to tell him
Not hungry mum I'm off out,
"Goodbye" ???

Annie,

Yo dear Annie,

If I ever pulled that on my old lady, I'd be eating a mouthful of knuckles.

Love Bobby

Crickie!  I never asked, and he was expected to sit and what whatever was the "bill of fare" of the day or starve to death.   Don't ask, and if he doesn't like it - he will tomorrow I am sure!

Perhaps you should let him make his own.
