Sling A Jammy Doughnut: A Plateful Of Poems About Food

Sling a jammy doughnut
Up into the sky,
Splat into a jumbo jet
Learning how to fly;
When the cockpit opens
And the pilot checks his wings,
He says "Don't throw the squashy ones,
I only like the rings!"

Joan Poulson serves up a plateful of poems to tickle very tastebud from some of our best-known poets. If your preference is for Anti-Gravity Gravy, or Universal Instant Gloop, then you've come to the right place. On the other hand, if you'd prefer to chase fast food or have dinner served in space, then you need to study the menu carefully before you make your choice. Tuck in!
