MY FRIENDS THE FOODS:

The carnations are on the table with the bananas,
The nectarines are canoodling with the chocolate,
The Tropical Mix remains aloof in it’s sealed plastic world,
The chess nuts are hard as bullets,
The cheese footballs are threatened with extinction,
The uneaten cakes await their fate beneath a clear glass sky,
The Italian biscuits have joined them,
The Amaretti are hiding in a gaily coloured tin,
The bread is cuddling the bagels in the bread bin.
