Can-Can



The Little Epicure that Could…

When shopping for my tasty bits,
I do the supermarket blitz.
I hold the price gun and I scan.
I think I can!  I think I can!

My budget will not let me buy
some steaks or frozen apple pie
but I am still a gourmet man.
I think I can!  I think I can!

For what is soup but dinner in
a can?  A rank beginner in
a cooking class can heat a pan.
I think I can!  I think I can!

The chicken noodle is on sale.
I got a coupon in the mail.
O Campbell’s!  I’m your biggest fan!
I think I can!  I think I can!

Notes:  The Mag [Magpie Tales] posted the above picture as the prompt. The form is Kyrielle, because it's such a fun form!  I can haz soup.

  1. Love it! Thanks for the chuckle.

    (BTW . . I'm not proving I'm a robot when I fill in these wretched WV's I'm working FOR NOTHING for outfits like libraries whose OCR software doesn't work properly. Did you know that? PLEASE turn them off)
