Ratatouille
A menu and a rodent
A Paris kitchen thing
And one young simple sous-chef
Made tantamount to King.
The smells and sights amazing
The Lordly Critic smiled
The whispering Rat
Was under the hat.
And haut cuisine beguiled!
The others rats assisting
When huge feasts were required.
New bistro birthed
And hundreds served
And countless cooks got hired.
About this poem
Genious often arrives in strange packages.
