Umer:

Ode To A Bagel

O toasted seed
O buttered bread
O burnt aroma
Gone to my head

I don`t know why
I love you so
Your lack of centre
Your rounded dough

You fill me up
O yeasty wheel
With your greasy texture
You make me reel

With my paper bag
You start my day
All wrapped in wax
In a special way

Toasty and warm
Fresh from the deli
On an autumn morn
Into my belly

Seeds in my teeth
Butter on my chin
I start the day
With a happy grin

I`ll say it aloud
For the world to hear
I love you forever
O bagel, dear
- P. Kennedy



Cheeers everybody :)

re: 36, 35

Thus the game begins again: ``have pity on me, even tho I write the most bigotted posts known to Chowk...``

Hope you guys don`t fall for it.

Umer M,
That was hilarious!!

aNnY,
I`m poetry challenged (even appreciation-wise), so I`ll pass on the comment-making.

When (I am hungry)
No one (disturbs me)
Feels (my desire to consume chholay purian)
Like mine (my stomach that is)

my insides contract (leading to constipation)
like a Baby (that must drink milk)
told (by my mausi)
‘don’t touch that!’ (banana cake)

My mind (thinks of mithai all the time)
Over floods with grief (at not eating the banana cake)
So
I look up (at the food cabinet)
and Sigh (oh crap)

Mental
Intestinal cramps (because I`ve eaten so much that my stomach`s pulled a muscle)
Do overwhelm (my belly)

`Why me,` I blurt (and belch)
Very hurt (because I`ve drunk too much coke)

Then
I look up again (at the top compartment of the fridge)
And He (The Irish elf with a lemon tart)
winks at me (and says, diddly dee)
He Winks!
Laughs at the impudence
`Cheeky little brat, (and taap af tha marnin to ya, Arrrrnie)
You!`


Do you know (That I love food)
When He laughed (at my gastronomic fetishes)
At the Nerve (of me eating a whole melon)
and we were young (so I can be forgiven for spilling rooh afza over my shirt)
We Gurgled (with gol gappe in my mouth)
and we Chuckled (at my proposition to consume three platters of aloo chaat)

Now we hide (our food from the others)
our uncontrollable (desire to eat, eat and eat)
Giggles


For God`s sake, AnNy; don’t you ever stop thinking about food?!? Cheer up.

Umer M.

mbenzenglish #31 you write ``either YOU objected because I mentioned creator-god in your enjoyment of life without...``
I was not objecting to anything your wrote. What is there in that post that sounds like it is an objection to anything you wrote??
you continue: ``...or you are a hindu-christian with hate of the word ALLAH imagining mbenzenglish in Allah format for my expertise without profession currently``
This is a meaningless sentence. Are you trying to say something, or is there a fishbone stuck in your throat and you are merely making funny noises??

mbenzenglish #29 And ``Until the sun dies`` (title of George Gamow`s seminal scientific book on the sun) a few billion years hence, let life on earth flourish and frolic, live and love, and preen and pine. Under the sunlight.
