A CERTAIN SHOPKEEPER
FROM NORWICH


(Limerick)

By Josie Whitehead

Certain Shopkeeper from Norwich (A)

A certain shopkeeper from Norwich

Ate only pork sausage and porridge.

       When he couldn’t get these,

       Nothing else would quite please

So he had to set forth and to *forage.

Copyright on all my poems

* forage: the act of searching for food and provisions, ie to forage for food, or in his case, for porridge.

Do you know that porridge is one of the healthiest foods that you can possibly eat?  You can see the man in the picture above and read why he considers porridge so good for you here.
