Breakfast Lovers Fantasy

•

whether panning for poached
fishing for fried
or sifting for softly scrambled

maybe bobbing for boiled
or sunny side up
angling for over easy

perhaps baiting a hook
for benedict
or dangling a lure for deviled

be they baked in cakes
or dropped in soup
it’s a whites & yolks wet dream

it’s a breakfast lovers fantasy
going to the eggs stream

    I am SOOO slow this morning - it took me right to the very last line to get it! And then how I laughed!
    I love a good punchline.

    Love the alliteration and the ending is great - “eggs stream” - very clever!
