Shel Silverstein was an inspiring poet with great humour in many of his poems. He is so sadly missed.

And man is a creature of constant change, and After you've been havin' steak for a long time Beans, beans taste fine.'.. It's great on the part of the poet to place before us the real man who is always after change and is tempted to find pleasure in unfamiliar sources. To some quality matters and to some other it doesn't.
