Four minutes for soft
ten minutes for hard
surrounded by soldiers
to dip and to guard
Boiled, scrambled,
poached with Hollandaise
fried with ham
there are so many ways
They're perfect for painting
some grandmothers suck them
tread carefully on their shells
eating chocolate ones at Easter - no problem
They are buried by turtles in the sand
hens lay them out the back 'a their cloaca
Emperor penguins balance them on their feet
this eggscellent poem is a real cracker!
