Some harbor favor for gourmet cuisine:
Caviar, pheasant or filet
mignon.
Trendy like crepe suzettes,
crème brulee, sushi,
Mildly to wildly exotic in
theme.
Others, like me, have a
simpler palette:
Meatloaf, potatoes, hot apple
pie,
Pintos, okra and fried green
tomatoes,
Coffee, no sugar, and light
on the cream.
Buttermilk cornbread to
crumble like sugar,
Biscuits with jelly, a savory
sweet,
Mother’s fried chicken, a
finger-food favorite
Served up on Sunday, a family
buffet.
I would not argue or offer a
protest
To anyone’s favor for
fanciful foods, but
Pintos, okra and fried green
tomatoes are
More than enough to get me
through the day.
