Could-have-beens

Stir-fry delight
Comes to this Tuesday night
Long shoots, curly greens
And wilted what could-have-beens

Left too long
Tell me, where did it all go wrong?
Never found the right course
To their favourite sauce

Until it was too late
Locked up behind iron gate
Only to peer out now and then
Gaze longingly at lovely szechuan

Feel sorry I do
Because there's nothing so blue
As knowing it could have been great
But you showed up too late

  1. We had stir-fry tonight... no wilted greens, just some slightly soft peppers! ;)
