Plans don't always go right.


Poem Artwork

What to prepare for supper tonight
Perhaps some exotic bird
Served with a fine spirit Merlot would be nice
A side of asparagus over wild rice
With just the right blend of salt pepper and spice
Palatable joy assured!

Menu in mind I get in the car
This meal has become my quest
I hit ev'ry red light along the way to
The grocery store then I fin'ly get through
A traffic jam yet now my thinking's askew
It seems I have lost my zest!

Inside the store I'm pushing the cart
Which has one loud squeaky wheel
My head now is pounding a child starts to whine
A box of white zinfandel suits my needs fine
Rotisserie chicken store's oven not mine
Screw plans of that fancy meal!

If I ever eat at your place I will settle for hot dogs & hamburgers and no whine...;-)e

Plans are meant to be altered at times; it's good to be "flexible." Love and best wishes,

Sounds like a winner after all. Do that fancy-smancy dinner when your got-up is still with you and hasn't let you down. Merlot. I'd substitute burgundy, but then I'm a fiend for cheap California burgundy.
