AN EASTERN WESTERN ADVENTURE


Greetings to you, young lady with peace
On completion of an era as daughter and niece
Dawning is the privilege to serve as housewife,
And unto your spouse, a wonderful partner in life.
 
The pleasures of love, motherhood, and a home-of-your-own you await,
With a duty of, many to please and to satiate
Through happiness, laughter, compassion and food,
Kindness and sincerity, and a pretty good mood
 
Towards a man-in-your-life who shall never be angry
For an angry man is only he who is hungry
A good meal - enough to cool him down,
With some delicacies awarding you a brilliant crown
 
If ever you tire to give him your idea
Or ever desire that he praise you in media,
Then remember the stomach - the only way to his heart,
A plot, tried and tested, and exceptionally smart
 
But this can only be when you really cook,
In a neat apron, with a modest look
 
A dash of lemon pepper with a pinch of salt,
And a sprinkling of aromat added to the pot
Crispy golden brown onions fried in ghee
A meal fit for a king, it will be
Are you looking for perfection to the very peak?
With aspirations high - which the east and west seek,
Why not delve in "An Eastern Western Adventure"
And then sigh - a heavenly rapture
 
In it the delightful east is in western flair
a promise of exotic flavours wafting the air
Tingling the nostrils and tantalizing taste buds
For watery mouths and crazy nuts
Saucy dips, smacking lips
Hearty sips and … many more tips
"Here I challenge every test,
to excel all, and be the best"
