POETRY IN MOTION

     Have you ever watched a person perform some function with such dexterity that it caused you to sort of "Giggle" just watching them. Well, we had a cook like that in Greenriver. I don't remember his name but watching him perform the simple task of frying scrambled eggs did that to me. He was literally Poetry in motion.

     He placed a crate of eggs on each side of him, and with one motion, He would pick up two eggs with each hand tap them lightly on the huge stove-Roll each hand emptying the eggs and dropping the shells in a trash container. This action-difficult to describe was accomplished in one continuous motion in about 2 seconds.
