A year of poetry

I’m really enjoying A Year of Poetry at Waitrose!  What a great idea to put the little folders of poems there with the onions.

I’m surprised that so far, I’ve seen no-one else opening them up to read – perhaps everyone else is more focused on their shopping?

I especially liked “Party Food” as I picked up a bag of Basmati rice this morning.

 I am a quaking jellyfish,

Captured quite in error

And now I sit in a trifle dish

Gazing up in terror.

Please don’t eat me with your cake

Or swallow with a cuppa

It would be my sad mistake

To sting for your supper

Another nice idea, Waitrose!

This is one more reason to love supermarkets in England.
