Breakfast Fix...
It was coming in the window
as I lay in bed
The breeze passed by, you know
It went right past my head
My nose; connected to my face
caught delicious smells
My brain began to race
ringing breakfast-bells
What was that scent divine?
Eggs and toast and ham?
I want the same for mine
For it's hungry, that I am
Wait! Left-over steak
from the night before
I've got some eggs to break
Ketchup packets by the score
The pan is getting hot
Some butter and some shrooms
A little hot sauce... just a shot
The scent of onion fills the room
Whip the eggs and blend the milk
find a little cheese
Make it smooth as silk
Black pepper makes me sneeze
Garlic, fold the eggs... a wrap!
the steak is all a sizzle
The toast is popping up
Honey in a drizzle
Coffee hot and tasty,
cream to smooth it out
To finish, Danish-pastry
I'm in Heaven! Want to shout!

Oh no!...
No tea for breakfast! As a born and bred American, it has to be coffee! Maybe if I had been born anywhere else...
I like tea, though it would be sacrilege, and tantamount to eating a dog, to have it for breakfast! Thanks for the read and comment. ~ Geez.

Yeah...
I do fix a breakfast like that once in a while, but most of the time, I'm too lazy and it winds up being cereal!
Thanks for stopping by and your comment. Glad it was good enough to make you hungry! ~ Geez.
