A limerick
Gordo gorged on meat when angry or nervous and could not bear slow restaurant service. Once, ol' Gordo ordered a whole cow - when the staff balked, he shouted, "Now!" On the hoof, the cook cried, "God, preserve us!"
d’Verse prompt: Bon appétit food poetry
At d’Verse, poets were encouraged to write poems about food.
Let’s write poetry together!
When it comes to partnership, some humans can make their lives alone – it’s possible. But creatively, it’s more like painting: you can’t just use the same colours in every painting. It’s just not an option. You can’t take the same photograph every time and live with art forms with no differences.
–Ben Harper (b. 1969)

I love this one David! ❤ You’ve put a smile on my face! 😊 I always call my husband “gordo”.
I picked that name deliberately! I looked for names that mean fat – and when I saw this one, I thought of you right away, Filipa 😀
Sébastien is “gordo” but I’m the chubby. 😂🤣😅
🤭
Yikes. That would be quite a sight.
