There is no real roasting done on my friends at the den, no one can I really rip, as they are all the best...no less!


Poem Artwork

Roasting in Down Under “Roo” Stew is Ch’erie…


 


Must be hot, roasting in that double broiler,


Willow waiting for a meal from mommy,


Or is that a meal of mommy?


Mixed with the “roo”, veggies & potatoes all in a stew…


 


Unusual they are down under at the bottom of the world,


A crazy sense of humor from living in the land of “oz”,


The earth down there seems to be twirled in the opposite direction,


When mommy is done cooking, Willow, put her in a vase…


 


She writes to us in words we don’t understand,


She makes us feel like we are part of her family,


She has a cute little puppy name of Willow,


Rufuz is interested as long as it is a puppy, not  guppies,


Down under they measure in the metric, yes in the kilo,


Like most of the world, ceptin’ the states, full of yuppies…


 


Can’t say much that is bad about Ch’erie,


A roast is supposed to be bad but funny, oh me,


She does spell her name in a bit of a different way,


But I attribute that to the place she lives & lays,


Her brain sloshing over to one side of her head,


Making it hard to spell let alone sleeping in bed,


Yes that is what I have said, yes, my name, it is…

Splended, Eddie M... you are great fun with your roasts and the writing of them seems to get better and better... I'd say, since my return to reading, you seem to be at the very top of your 'game'... I'm so glad you feel encouraged to keep going with these unique "wonders" of yours (smile) You've given the den some great moments! katy xox.

Another great meal, only you roast with
hardly a dash of pepper!;-) Rare?

She will love this! Did you know, or so I've heard from a reliable Aussie source, that in the Land Down Under, water does actually drain in the opposite direction from here in the USA?
