Hot Chips Love Poem

By Lilly, Year 4

If I ever had to choose between you
and a second helping of hot chips
I would love lots of chicken salt
with only a little bit of vinegar
tomato sauce with a little bit of mayonnaise.
With golden brown chips,
hot and warm as a kettle
Extra soft wedges served on a bowl
All round loaded with gravy lots of bowls,
with only a sprinkle of grated cheese melted on top
I think I’d choose hot chips
But I’d choose you next.
