I would like
an omelette, please?
with bacon-bit
hash-browns...

give to me
in one neat square,
on the side
italics dare
they must be
the bread of me,
warm and golden, piping hot...
give to me, what I have not...

Just let me, place an order--please?

I just want the "white" of egg,
toss the yolk from shell to shell--
mix it twice by fork turned thrice--
pour it--pan plays flute of hell.

Toss the mushrooms that you hate
and the swiss that would not grate--
tomatoes in a dice of greed...
liquid ran, releasing seed--

"Let me place an order please?"

Then serve me scrambled eggs.

Italics dare

that keeps ringing out...

You mean people actually eat at this hour?  Just coffee for me, please.


Forgetting all I'm lacking
Completely and complete
I'll take your invitation
You take all of me

You just made me very hungry! Going to the frig to get eggbeaters.  If you put enough stuff in them (soy cheese and tomatoes) they're pretty good! Hugs!

Who ????  In their right mind eats early?

I can hardly walk, let alone be famished
and starved for even this scrumptuous
breakfast that has my stomach growling
now.... (Mag exits to kitchen,  hits the
fridge for something to eat)

Like this poem, Karen....

I'm with Duncan and Barry...
I have never been able to eat breakfast at breakfast time...
I just can't eat in the morning...but I love breakfast, so sometimes I have it for lunch.
BTW, Mrs. Newlywed...
this is an eggceptional poem...
really delicious sounding this evening.

laughing...Marge got it right...is it really breakfast if it's an early morning supper? Next poem? I'll explain how I manage to convince a sleeping man to wake up and cook for me!

OH. (y'might have to visit "that other forum" to read that one!")

Thanks all...

You're lucky that you can eat anything that resembles a meal made for breakfast. My stomach does not agree with any of it.

I love the was this read. You have captured the essence of the theme and expanded on it quite well. Thank you for the read.
