DISHED UP

"How do you do tonight, Mum?
Your presence is required.
See what we have for you, Mum..
All things you have desired.
Dished up and served,
your table there,
entirely for you.
See how we prepare with such extra care,
this spread done just for you.
With such exotic displays, Mum,
exsquisitly for you.
Delicate, mouth watering bites, Mum,
entirely for you.
"Enchanting smells, I must confess
sucked up through these thick nostrils
.Accompanied with my buttered lips
to gnaw on tasty entrails."Order of au d'ouves...?"
Why yes, Sir,
the perfect final touch.
But leave a little on the plate,
I think we've had too much.
Waiter can you help me?"
Why,Yes Mum..would you like a little more?.....
some pepper perhaps, a dash of salt
then I 'll show you to the door?
"Bravo, Bravo, Bravisimo,
I 'm so pleased as you can tell,
Thank you for you and let you know
that everything went well.
Sadly though I must inform
Your service is no longer required?"
Alas, alas and finally thus
we all end up retired. "
