THE SILVER SPOON

It was a hot, hot afternoon

And I ran through the kitchen 

In search of a spoon

A silver spoon.

I ran a wild goose chase

Turning the kitchen upside down

And the chase became an eventful phase

Of that burning hot afternoon.

I bumped into my Papa

Marring frowns on his stern face

And I slumped onto my Mama

Staining her frilly lace.

The tiny kitchen seemed big and

I seemed to be searching an entire universe

For a spoon of silver significance

In my relatively insignificant life.

It has very deep meaning. Not everybody is born with a silver spoon and this highlights this fact quite smartly but you can always make your own. It may take time but once you do you know how to do it.

Unique and creative..It speaks volume about human nature like when we are unable to find a thing we turn everything upside down that was really portrayed very well...
