~~~the Chef~~~ Poem by Theodora (Theo) Onken

~~~the Chef~~~

Rating: 4.4


Saucy as the tang of Chili...
...Warmed as gingers heated groans-
Taste delight of Curry to the palate...
...Sweet as Honey Bees, to their drones...

Sirens scented journey-
Into aroma's of London Town...
Satisfied a billowing hunger...
Placed a smile and erased a frown...

Courted with Heavenly Manna-
Ushered in, by taste buds sweet...
Raised and baked in sheer splendour-
Temperature of ovens complete!

In the kitchen of attractions wonder-
Sizzles a Chef So Supreme...
Seasoned and hand crafted taste delight
He's todays: 'Cream De La Cream'

Ordinary cook, no never? !
Naturally adept at La Cuisine...
Evermore shall he create...
Succulent, saucy, dreams...

Allie, Yes, and thank you...my taste buds and my heart. Curtis is this ever so gifted Aussie cook, that spent the last ten years of his life cooking in London...he has had several shows, but now he has one out of los Angeles...called: Take Home Chef...I have watched them all, from Martha Stewart, to Rachel Ray, to Emeril and Bobby Flay, and Mario, and i tell you, Curtis, has it hands down in all departments! Thank you for reading and commenting! You watch him, and your mouth waters continuelly, oh the things he can do with crab! Love, Theo xxxxx

Marci, Your still awake too? And i thought i was a night owl! Hey glad you liked this. I have already tried a lot of his awesome stuff. Things i would have never tried before...like cooking with curry! I am more of an oriental/italian/TexMex/SeaFood, Barbeque gal! Been cooking forever it seems, . but i love it. And if my legs are too weary, i sit at my island, and chop and mix! LOL! Along with writing, cooking is, one of my favorite things to do. Although, i would Have to say dining out is the ultimate eating experience, if the dining is quality! Happy Labor day Weekend To You To, Sweet One! Theo :) xoxo
