When Larry Made Lasagna

　　When Larry made lasagna

　　all his neighbors stopped and stared.

　　His lasagna was the largest

　　that had ever been prepared.

　　He used ninety yards of pasta

　　and a half a ton of cheese,

　　and the sauce, he spread with spatulas

　　that looked a lot like skis.

　　With a hundred pounds of vegetables

　　and wagon-loads of meat

　　plus a tiny sprig of parsley

　　his lasagna was complete.

　　So he lifted that lasagna

　　with a forklift and a crane

　　and he placed it in an oven

　　that was longer than a train.

　　For a week, while it was baking,

　　its aroma filled the town,

　　till he took it from the oven

　　piping hot and golden brown.

　　All the neighbors came and tasted it

　　but frowned at him, and then

　　they complained, "It needs a bit more salt.

　　You'll have to start again."
