EGG

No egg for breakfast?
No, I didn’t mean
what I said.
I really did want one
but I pretended
I didn’t , instead.
Sausages and mushrooms-
bacon and toasted bread
I said, were fine.
But I knew, so when I got home
I drew you an egg.
As Roger Hilton said
“It’s not what you put in that is important
It’s what you leave out.”
