As promised, in my last blog, here is my Ode to Porridge:
Oh, porridge!
I sense your warm comfort, and
anticipate how you will break my fast.
Oh porridge, your humble mushiness is undemanding.
Oh porridge (and brown sugar!),
this is happiness. I am replete.
Oh porridge,
I have no idea what we would eat without you.
(Really, no jokes, porridge is a fundamental part of our diet.)
