Purple Toast

The Jelly plumb platypus ,

was feeling gelatinous.

Its Eyes covered in a sticky glaze.

Twas Gobbling drips, splashing like violet haze.

With sticky pink fingers rimming the jar

It was ready for long mission afar

So It focused and deserted its dreaming

And got Glossed up till it was gleaming,

.

Bubble, Into the air it hovered

Where it would land, T'was not bovered.

From the view of above table adventures were rife

As It glided on the blade of a knife

It had a mission of spreading sauce.

So it headed to the bread board of course.

Wanting leaven bready thins,

It had a lust and glutenous envy

for crust and flakes of risen dough.

That are Split toasted, hard, white then brown.

So The platypus was very delighted

When the bread board kindly invited;

“my flour is here has been baking

And my offers' here for the taking

So Take a slice, of whats on show,

The bake'n'rise, of my loafs folded in dough.

But watch that slices's mouldy bit

Its like flu caught on two cups”.

The platypus's dive was to start

plummeting like a Plumb dart

It had better aim between the crust.

Because thats Surely a landing consideration must.

But Before the colour errupted

Something came and interrupted...

It was The Knife, who came to cut in and say.

In a very sharp and defiant way

Your route to satisfaction must be altered.

Because this slice would prefer something salted

And doesn’t want to be sweetly assaulted

so your look for staples must be halted.

Be a good jelly and take it the

Leek and onion, strong steaming stock

give it the broth for a cheeky soup dip

you will find new blend of spice at the end of the trip.

Listening to what the knife had said

really put the platypus off the bread

another decision that it also made

Was to ditch the interfering blade

“I think I would prefer to be the ladle

because I prefer some shiny steel thats made well,

or maybe the handle of chefs brimming bowl

No retches while that spatula fetches

then my tender mouthful squelches.

Remember to Look for a taste less vicious

like the pale yellow Icing the naked sponge citrus

Removing its description as nutritious.

Aroma Rich, light and suspicious.

Cos quick jerky hasting is the best for wasting

this not the only cog that's used for racing.

The turkey needs basting , its primed and waiting

season it well so its good for tasting.
