rhymed poem
An April Fool
: Ketchup by sunnilicious
Artwork by avmurray at FanArtReview.com


This couplet is about ketchup
I hope it's not a big mess up

Ketchup is an Ancient Chinese Secret
A tonic made with anchovies to keep


British sailors brought ketchup home
It was different and unlike creamy foam

The cooks played with the recipe
Mushrooms and walnuts but no Hennessy

Two centuries later, tomatoes were the tweek
A genius idea approved by more than just geeks

And that first tomato recipe was published
By an American horticulturist

Tomato ketchup is the superfood
A condiment given much gratitude


 

Author Notes
NOTE: It's Good Friday. I couldn't find anything about Easter stuff, but there is plenty going on... And I'm sure ketchup, (mustarf and relish) is popular as ever this holiday weekend. Have fun and make some great memories :)
