Quarry
A drop of rum, a horse tail hair
a length of twine, a poachers snare ..
A broken twig, a piece of wire
a baited trap, all set and waiting ..
for those who may have only ever
poached an egg, I do apologise ..

In one sense it sounds like a witches brew. Got any eye of newt? Aww, why all these one-eyed newts going about? Apologies to newts!
No idea ............................................................................................................. cheers tho' Mr. O 🙂
got eggnog's on me mind
but me cream is all askew
so I'll borrow Neville's advice
and brew his recipe anew, 'yey!'
a horse hair for cinnamon stick
a lengthy twine for sugar cane
a baited trap for my Quarry
a broken twig and wire
to boarder Boris, in his
Quarantine borders... (for once)
all served
with a side of poached eggs
in Rum...
(thanks for inspiring my little scribbled reply, my friend
great Fun!)
