Hello Poetry Lovers
Well, it looks like my food fixation is here to stay. I’ve even included a photo of me in an IKEA kitchen!
However I would have been inspired by Trisha Broomfield’s lovely piece anyway. Simply titled Trisha’s Breakfast, these succinct words show us what a complex meal breakfast is these days. Great fun, I love it. Do read on ;

Trisha’s Breakfast
Breakfast isn’t always easy
porridge doesn’t hit the spot

eggs make me feel rather queasy



I’m up by seven on the dot
Toast is dull and rather flat

fruit too fresh and wide awake
kippers I’d give to the cat



too much by half this time of day
Avocado is a current choice
despite the miles that they fly

a shame they do not have a voice
I could choose sausages to fry

Pumpkin seeds and almonds I could try
to go vegan and respect the world
or get out early, go and buy
buttered croissants neatly curled

but despite my fast since supper time
what I need first thing you see
a biscuit, I know it doesn’t rhyme,
and a mug of good strong tea.



Wasn’t that just lovely?! Bless you, Trisha, thank you so much. Please keep them coming.

Thanks for tuning in, PL’s, till the next time…
