Eggs…

Eggs…

Eggs are excellent,

eggs strodinary even.

~

You can fry them.

Sunny side up,

or sunny side down.

~

You can poach them.

Like Delia taught us,

vinegar’s the key.

~

You can scramble them.

Get busy with a whisk,

be careful not to spill.

~

Some like them Benedict.

Disgusting state of affairs.

~

I’ve tried them raw.

Not my best idea.

~

They’re great in a sandwich,

add a sprinkling of cress.

~

You can throw them at busses,

policemen and politicians.

They’re a prison staple,

served with no remorse.

~

My best friend’s an egg,

a good one at that.

~

They can turn rotten,

so watch out for that.

Salmonella’s not pleasant,

you’ll be sick on your shoes.

~

Time for my breakfast,

can you guess what I’ll have?

Cornflakes for me,

I’ve run out of eggs.
