Salt And Pepper Shaker Poem by Vera Sidhwa

Salt And Pepper Shaker

Rating: 5.0


Salt and pepper shaker,
Talk to me a lot,
Whether the customer,
Advice sought.

Salt and pepper shaker,
You have heard so much,
Of this and that and this,
And all comments such.

How does it feel,
Sitting on a restaurant,
Table,
To give advice,
To be able?

Salt and pepper shaker,
I'm about to use you,
On my food.

yes, the 'shakers' can SPILL a lot of information/advice! i like the rhyming and that you ended as you did, without a rhyme. nice. Howard mentions mundane, below. well..... shakers are mundane, but TALKING shakers are NOT! CUTE. to MyPoemList. bri ;)

Bringing meaning out of the mundane is indeed a wonderful way to create poetry.
