Greedy poem gannet

By Stephanie Sideways

I stuff my face with poems here
The meals served up in reams
I indulge in wordy gluttony
I'm bursting at the seems

But still you serve me more and more
Just like a pushy Aunt
I eat and eat all that I can
But finish? I just can't

You cook and bake and fry and grill
The most delicious food
I want to at least try it all
So you don't think me rude

Even 'back of cupboard' tins
Will not go out if date
And if you all stopped cooking
All the meals would still taste great

There so much here to be consumed
Enough to feed the planet
I savour all I can
As I'm a greedy poem gannet

I've started cooking recently
To add into the mix
I have a mind of recipes
Do try the meals I fix !


( love you all!!!!!!!!)

    Superb analogy with the avian world, and it is a meal richly sampled and wonderful, and you are a connoisseur! So when it's only pigeon droppings, recall the eagle taking wing and remember the soaring.
