aka Spaghetti Challenge There once were two girls who wrote doodles While eating their meatballs and noodles They'd best watch their plate Lest their meatballs fall straight In the mouths of their two little poodles. I received this email from a visitor to my Cape Cod site today folks... Can anyone oblige? quote:  Waft every crest upon your destined sea. Embrace the Wave of Serendipity, Lest its elusive arcane ecstasy Refurl with sail for all eternity. [This message has been edited by Nan (edited 02-27-2001).] |

in the kitchen was the chef-boss who made up a batch of 'sghetti sauce "you slurp and you slurp then you burp, and you burp and eat with a salad you toss" |

Nancy - you are tooooo much! I was eating a long spagetti, when I looked over, at my teddy... He gave me a look, then a wink, I thought maybe, he wanted a drink... But what he wanted, was a skeddie, not veggies, or lettuce, for teddy... Gave him a long one, with a spoon, and then he jumped up, started to croon... Sang me a song, he sure did, even said his name was Fred... I don't have a moral, to this poem, but feed teddy skeddie, and BC will stay home... BC |

Hey, what's with this spaghetti? It won't stay on my fork! Each time I go to take a bite I feel like such a dork. It slides across the table and then drops on the floor Hey what's with this spaghetti? HEY MA, I NEED SOME MORE!!! Hey, what's with this spaghetti? It's such a terrible mess! Each time I go to take a bite it falls right on my dress. Is it worth the trouble? It seems an awful chore! Hey what's with this spaghetti? HEY MA, I WANT SOME MORE!!! |

Spaghetti or not here it comes a strand that tickles as it reaches the tum. Long and stringy tasting delish till all that's left is an empty dish. But watching you eat are loving eyes ready to wipe left over surprise. oh well took a shot at it *s "The worst prison would be a closed heart". ...Pope John Paul II [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (edited 02-28-2001).] |

OKOKOK...I got one (thanks PRMike for the inspiration) Hey what's with this spaghetti? It kind of looks like worms It's twisted and it's tangled And even kind of squirms. I wonder, would it wiggle If I dropped it on the floor~ Well, I can see it doesn't. Hey Mom! I want some more! (SORRY!!!!) |

Sarah likes her 'sketty plain, no sauce, no butter, no cheese, if you forget and serve it laced, up turns her nose, pretty as you please. Would love to see your web site, Nan! Corinne |

There once was a poet named Nan whose spaghetti limerick was grand she'd taken the challange and showed her great talent but alas the can opener jammed. The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |

SPAGHETTI !! My sister and I like spaghetti the best But one day it caused us a little unrest We both were so startled by slow little squirms It seems that the noodles were actually worms “Oh, please do not eat us”, they fervently pled All covered with sauce so delicious and red “Just allow us to rest here on top of your plate We are really the worst worms that you ever ate” We told them ,”We’re famished, and besides you are doomed To be eaten with meatballs and sausage real soon So please all be quiet and don’t interrupt!” We sprinkled on cheese and we ate them all up We sucked up each long and thin noodley worm One at a time with a fidgety squirm But when we were finished, we started to balk At the thought of a worm that could actually talk! Mom said ,”You both look a little bit ill.” We said ,”Eating slimy long worms was a thrill!” She gasped at the thought that she couldn’t comprehend Mothers sometimes don’t know how to pretend! Next day Mother served us spaghetti once more The worms were all moving much worse than before They all started shouting and making a fuss “You ate up our cousins, You’re not eating us!” This time Mother witnessed the noodles’ proposal And chucked all the worms down the garbage disposal!

Two girls all covered in red, With noodles from tummy to head, It isn't the waste, They just love the taste, Of their Mother's cooking instead. |
