Mushy Peas
Have the mushy peas, he said,
They go so well
With the crispy fish,
And the lovely chips!
Just a drop or two, he said,
Of vinegar there
Is the perfect touch
For a snack or a meal.
Wrap it in paper, he said,
And take it along.
It tastes like home,
And brings memories sweet!

Aw, what a sweet poem! Thank you for sharing it!
Cute poem. But, doesn’t sound too appetizing to me.
ryc: Really it is no longer my credit history at that point?! Does that mean if I were to drive us into complete debt and then divorce him and change my name I would be fine? Just curious. But, you’re right that is annoying.
Ma cobwebs was white when they got here from Paris, but now they’s a shade o’ gray. Most everything else out here is gray so them ‘webs blend right in! I aint gotta lotta fancy stuff but it’s real homey like out here. I gotta place to hang ma hat (on the floor, haha!) and that’s bout all a man needs to be right down satisfied. And a huntin’ dog! Reckon i outta get me a woman too, but no hurry. Don’t rightly know why, but most women don’t cotton to these parts out here. I reckon i’m gonna get me one o’ them mail-order brides…

great poem . the fish and chips sound good but not the peas
Sounds a very english poem as of course chips and fish are best eat out of a newspaper
I am not sure what the mushy peas are Nancy but what is sure they are good ( oh my poor English ) . You write here a true ode to the revels of the gastronomy , to the delights of the home good smell memories . I like the smells of cooking and I have the chance Janine is a fine cook . So it often smells good at home . . Congrats for this poem .
Love

Oh, they would have to eat mushy peas for if they did, they would change their minds. I love mushy peas and when I was in St. Helen’s Woods near Liverpool, my SIL’s Aunt Margaret made me a dish. Ummm, delicious. Thank you for the poem for it brings back lovely memories!
By the heck wi’oou mushies chips nay the same, though baked beans in tomato ketchup is better with sausage and chips.
