Poetry Bonus:
By Bernard Shaw
Once I fried a fish,
That was a tasty dish.
I tried my hand at meat,
It turned out a real treat.
I decided to be a cook,
And bought myself a book.
I mixed some ingredients for a cake,
Put it in the oven to bake.
It turned out really well,
I was under a magic spell.
I cooked some vegetables in a pot,
I served them piping hot.
My cooking was a great success
Alas my kitchen in a terrible mess.
Now my wife does the cooking,
Her meals are of the best.
She cooks with great zest.
The kitchen is again clean,
I feel somehow very mean.
