Nectar From The Gods.

At last it was time,

The cooking had been completed.

I took it from the steamer,

Took the wrapping from the top,

Turned the basin upside down,

And there on the plate it stood

This nectar from the Gods,

My most favourite food

That I have ever tasted.

It took many hours of creation,

But there it was before me

Sitting in absolute glory,

Waiting for me to take a slice.,

The filling inside was cooked to perfection

The outside created with love,

So now all was ready.

I pulled the knife through it,

It just glided through it so easily,

I cut it in half and there I saw

All was well,

The inside stood firm.

I cut a large portion

Onto my plate,

The inside sliding out

Showing the glory of its soul.

I poured some gravy round it

And took the first taste.

So soft and tender it was

And the taste was so wonderful,

It had been many years since the last one

But now I had created another.

My enjoyment was complete

As I sat there in euphoria,

Eating my steak and kidney pud.
