Pass the salt please...

Seven twenty five,
Vigorous mashing of sweet potato,
Scooping of sizzling golden roasties,
All crispy crunch, scolding fat, fluffy white inside,
Salty, snapple crack pork rind, light brown and bubbled.
Verdant broccoli, steaming and slightly crunchy,
Light, toasty brown, batter puddings,
Piled high,
Near, honey roasted parsnips,
And slightly soggy carrots.
Drowned, drowned, drowned,
With deep dark gravy.
