Amongst an array of dusty old recipe books And a micellany of utensils Stood a thin silhouette Of the Sleepy Old Man.
Conducting a show Of his culinary orchestra Stirring,Blanching Baking,Frying Seasoning and Tasting With that grace Like a ballerina Dancing As he prepares the glaze.
He packs the orders Takes another 10 And tosses a biscuit to a dog. Writes a message At the back of the bill While drinking Chocolate Eggnog
A smile Always a smile He wears as his armour Leading A Red Army Delivering not only food But also a message to mankind Feeding not only their mouths But also their mind.
March 29,2014. This poem is inspired by a restaurant owner,who's old and very kind. He feeds dogs around his shop and also happens to deliver on his own.At times he writes small messages and sends along with the food. How cool is that!
