new take on Blake for Mlady Helena

sonnet

 

New take on Blake

 

Little lamb who made thee?

Made thee tender, tasty and sweet,

 made thee very good to eat.

A little lamb well pleaseth me

with new potatoes mint and peas.

 It satisfies my appetite,

 there is no better way to please.

 A hungry man who has the right

to have his hunger satisfied

 When he’s been hard at work all day.

With tender meat thou hast supplied,

 which has been cooked his favourite way.

 

I do not know my little lamb

but I am glad.I truly am.
