Egg-cellent
There’s a treat that egg-sists
that brings such happiness
egg-actly what kind
(cause I can read your mind.)
So please let me egg-plain
it’s egg-cellent for your brain
with tryptophan within
and protein for good skin
an egg will make you smile
egg-streamly worthwhile.

I believe breakfast is the most important meal of the day for our bodies and keeps us going all morning. Eggs got a bad rap in the past but we now know that eggs should be a healthy part of our daily diets.
Writing a Quadrille this week for the prompt egg with dVerse~Poets Pub. The words with egg in them are counted as one word.
A good reminder for us all. The image is hilarious and eerie at the same time!

Do you not like eggs, Bjorn? Although I eat oatmeal for breakfast I love fried egg sandwiches with toasted bread and Miricle Whip.
