Grab em!

Earlier PoemsPoetry

Lettuce, cheese, and tomato sauce
giggling, burger poked out its arm 
tempting me to grab and to have a
big bite. Oh no sir you won’t get me 
easily I’m holding tight my muscles
need a flat tummy you see. Ha! Oh 
please!

    Nice turtle-burger sandwich walking toward us in the picture. I think I would resist taking a bite as well.

    Delightful pic and words. I don’t think I’d take a bite either – need my teeth!
    Kind regards

    Do you think that tortoise knows that it isn’t its lunch it’s carrying around—it IS lunch? Fun poem, Sanaa.

    Yes, great fun–3.5 on the giggle meter. One could break a tooth on that
    T-burger.

    It may no longer be “fast food”, but is it bad that I now want a burger served on a tortoise? lol. Such a cute write Sanaa.
