1337 - My Favourite Things

 

The Poet's and Storyteller's prompt is "what delights us".

My favourite Things

(Apologies to Rodgers & Hammerstein.)

All types of cheese and sesame snaps,

Red wine in glasses and crispy lamb flaps.

The ability to silence a telephone's ring—

These are a few of my favourite things

Watching a cat walk and eating cream slices

Uncomplicated electronic devices

Magpies that chortle and choirs that sing—

These are a few of my favourite things

Home made spaghetti and parmesan cheese

A day without pain in either of my knees

Breasts that bounce like jelly on springs—

These are a few of my favourite things

When the soup burns

What the cat brings

When I'm writing bizarre

I simply remember my favourite things—

And pour a glass of Pinot Noir.
