Over Easy Poem by Josephine Lauderdale

The sun is not out this morning
But
I can feel it anyway
It's shining in my soul

A big yellow ball of contentment
Large pulsating glowing, knowing
That calls for brunch
To express itself

A vast opportunity

Benedict
Or waffles

But

If it's OK with you
I want the right amount of syrup

Over easy
Always the way to go

I am not picking up the tab today

My eggs were cold
And not as expected

I just might have to find a new returant

Will you come with me? ?

You will probably say this one is fine
And you might be right

But

My seat is by the window
And I think I can smell the bathroom


I will find the ladies room
And decide if
It's acceptable

But...I am thinking...
If you pick up the check
I might just wait and go
At the nearest gas station

Thanks for brunch
It helped a lot

And
I love you
