Now that Pancake Day has come, <br />Flipping pancakes is such fun. <br /> <br />First crack eggs into a bowl; <br />Whisk them briskly for us all. <br /> <br />Sprinkle flour nice and white; <br />Add some milk to make it right. <br /> <br />Make the batter thick not runny; <br />Tasty pancakes for my tummy. <br /> <br />Cook it in a frying pan; <br />Flip and catch it if you can. <br /> <br />Flipping pancake’s on the floor; <br />Oops I missed: I’ll make some more. <br /> <br />Flipping pancakes, I have found <br />Less fun, second time around. <br /> <br />Never mind, let’s flip once more; <br />Flipping heck – it’s on the floor. <br /> <br />Third time lucky – hope it works; <br />Still that sinking feeling lurks. <br /> <br />Flip that pancake; yes- you’ve guessed: <br />On the floor with all the rest. <br /> <br />Flipping pancakes - what a pain. <br />Flipping pancakes; not again. <br /> <br />Flipping pancakes – go away; <br />Come again next Shrove Tuesday.<br /><br />C Richard Miles<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/flipping-pancakes/
