Next time you order dessert, take a menu and be alert. <br />Try something new for a change, something flavorful, something strange. <br />Something that should NOT be feared, something tasty and somewhat weird... <br />Goat Guts and Garlic Grits! Goat Guts and Garlic Grits! <br />They're delicious and nutritious and they never cause zits. <br />Better than a mud-pie, better than a booger! <br />Try them with cinnamon and a little sugar. <br />Spread on bread with mustard greens, <br />Peach preserves and butter beans. <br />Adds flavor to any old dish. <br />You heard me right, I did not stutter! <br />Eat them with some apple butter! <br />Try them with smelly-deli-fish! <br />With peanut butter and jellyfish! <br />The flavor will give your mouth fits... <br />Goat Guts and Garlic Grits! Goat Guts and Garlic Grits! <br />No noodle-strudel chowder chew! <br />No ooey-gooey goulash stew! <br />No cherry-berry party pops! <br />No yummy-gummy lemon drops! <br />No super-duper tasty tarts! <br />No creamy-dreamy chocolate hearts! <br />No dandy-candy bubble bits! <br />Just Goat Guts and Garlic Grits! <br />The perfect treat for old and young, <br />Tickle the taste buds on your tongue. <br />They're delicious and nutritious <br />And they never cause zits. <br />Goat Guts and Garlic Grits... <br />Goat Guts and Garlic... <br /> <br />GROSS! <br /> <br /> <br />From the book: 'A Woolly Mammoth on Amelia Street: Read Aloud Poems4Kids' By: Todd St. Pierre <br />www.LouisianaBoy.com<br /><br />ToddMichael St. Pierre<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/goat-guts-and-garlic-grits/
