Fry Cooks Need Love Too

 

 

 

 

 

 

His words are fortunately a lot

smoother than the lumpy

pancake batter he dutifully plops

onto a grayed, greasy grill

every morning as

 

thoughts of her, permeate

orders of eggs over easy with

sausage on the side, while

tantalizing verse sizzles in his mind

like the hot fare before him and

 

goals are planned, as far as ambition

will take, but why rush things,

because life is fine, the way it is, simple,

without great need except for

the garnered affections of a woman~

    This is excellent!!! The dreams of the average man are no less real than those of the great adventurer! And I think all anyone really wants is a simple life with the affection of a special person! This was so worthy of the trophy!

    So true and your words most certainly astonish with their simple but touching sentiments.

    Best of luck in the contest.

    LoL...love the title. I was a fry cook for awhile. Mostly I worked on the grill though. Still have scars to prove it. Nicely penned my friend per usual.
