oh where does it all begin
from one end of the flat yellow ribbon to the other
tossed in sauce so clever
crevices hiding little minced fellows
wrapped in stringy blankets so secure
a few sprinklings of garnish
accompany guests fished from oceans deep
from chalky origins into water boiled
slurped between one's teeth
and to one's glee
the epoch of mee pok
began - with tender hands
and a gentle heart
