DINING IN A LITTLE FRENCH RESTAURANT

Ham and bacon splattered the floor

While Mr. Pig wants some more.

And Mr. Snail who doesn't have much time

Munches on a large lettuce

To increase his size.

The restaurateur with eyes on stalks shouts  

"For escargots are so divine!"

While Mr. Thirst demands a drink

To quench the night before.

While Mr. Big never filled

Wants the bill and forever more.

 And there's the door with a sign

" EAT WHATEVER YOU ARE!"

Of a little french restaurant

Signed John Lennon ate here!   Ahhh!

Why John Lennon? Why not Jack Lemmon? Why not Orsen Welles? Now he had an appetite! Why not Gérard Depardieu who has an appetite and eats French food? He even owns a vineyard ... Hey, what happened to the wine? You can't have a French restaurant without wine. You might have to rename Mr. Thirst to be Mr. Beaujolais or Saint Emilion. Lots of fun though. I'm hungry.

Just a quirky write and I chose John Lennon for he wrote quirky poems and lyrics to songs like I am the walrus. lol I wanted to emulate his cleverness with a nonsense write:) lol I'm glad you enjoyed my nonsense!:)

And, I am the carpenter. The Jabberwock, needless to say, also enjoyed your poem and we all ate oysters on the half shell with vinegar and pepper. It was ducky.

Hi Andrew. Sometimes your mind works in mysterious ways!!! My guess is . . . no . . . what is food metaphorically anyway, alf

[andrew mitchell]

just a nonsense write lol alf nothing deep or meaningful just silliness!

[andrew mitchell]

A quirky write which i tried to emulate in a John Lennon style of nonsense lol like "I am a walrus!" or some of his poems hence he gets a mention to support my write and its a tribute to JL

I wasn't sure if I was getting a plate of Dr. Seuss or a menu filled with cannibalistic treats :) But, if John Lennon ate there, well, I guess it's okay to dine. I'm feeling a little full... great meal here Andrew!
