The Ragtime Daily Prompt this morning is UNIVERSE
and I’m cheating. I went through my Dropbox and found a haiku verse I’ve written but never posted.

January night
a starless universe
oppresses the earth
Then I found some verses I did post back in 2018. I’ve edited them so today I present the abridged version:
Lunchtime
onion on cutting board
white flesh exposed, waiting
dissection at noon
my surgical imprecision
cheese slice slithers
on mayo, topped with lettuce.
the Orange and the Green —
a battle on my bun?
meat comes next — salami —
by appointment to HRH!
Does the Queen eat salami?
I chew on the thought
biting my sandwich
I ponder the complexity
of our vast universe
as time stops for lunch.

Chew on the thought!
Lovely 🙂

That sounds delicious, a sandwich fit for a Queen!

Nothing gourmet about it, but maybe Royals like to be common sometimes.
