Foodaroma by Alysha Bhatti (aged 8) The chef said, Hello Welcome to our show The spinach roll Climbed on the pole Spaghetti gave a whoop And twisted in a loop Eggie broke his head And soaked the bread Chicken gave a jump, And landed with a thump Lemon and the fish Somersaulted in the dish Strawberries and cream Slithered on the beam The kettle now sang To join the gang The spoons clapped away And banged on the tray As melon and the peach Gave a thank-you speech.
