Ode to the Pantry Warden
I was browsing through random blogs and I noticed that a lot of people are in the habit of writing odes to people and things that they like. As a newbie in the blogging world I have decided to follow the example of my blog mentors and create an ode of my own:
Ode to the Pantry Warden
Oh, Pantry Warden
You have my undying gratitude
At least until I forget about your goodness
You freely give that which isn’t technically yours
And I benefit greatly from it
All kinds of pastries, candies, soft drinks and other sugary substances
They all are freely given to my valiant friends and I
All we have to do is ask and we receive
We open your car and take of the bounty inside
Your willingness to betray your own kin
Solely for our benefit is greatly appreciated
Your Loyalty to us
While not necessarily earned is treasured
I wish for you to be blessed in this life and the next
May your mornings be spent sleeping
And your evenings, cashing checks
The traffic should part before you
Blessed Pantry Warden

All I have to say is this:
LOL!
I know not of whom you speak, but I'll second the LOL.
There are approximately five people on the planet who know what I'm talking about. To us the Pantry Warden is a very important person. I thought I'd honor her with a special and, if you understand what it's about, hilarious ode.
You have to thank Josh for keeping the "pantry" stocked for us.
Lol. How can you be my brother,rabenstrange?
It's called having mutual parents.
I think that's how is usually works, Arita.
At first I was full of disbelief that you actually wrote some poetry-like thing. After recovering from that initial disbelief, I find your Ode to be very amusing. The Pantry Warden does deserve this Ode.
Why does Josh stock so much junk food in butterfly's car? She offered me some, which I kindly didn't take but there was tons of candy and pop. By the way I never expected you to write a poetry like thing.
