A Cook In The Kitchen! Poem by elysabeth faslund

A Cook In The Kitchen!

Rating: 5.0


Get outta that bed, and rattle them pots and pans!
Wake everyone up in the house, and gettum goin!
2 pots of coffee to start, and a pan of cinnamon rolls!
Every move in the kitchen is waiting on you!

Lil Martel brandy in the coffee, makes you glad to wake!
Lil verse/talk time online, makes me wish you all here!
You're kings and queens of your castle today!
Anticipations, aggravations, all Holidations!

The most important part of Thanksgiving is the cook!
That's why your family is gathered in your home today!
You are the star, with your talent and great heart!
You wizard everything together, weaving family and food!

And, with every bite and groan, loosening of those belts,
You've succeeded in sprinkling love, good wishes, to all
Gathered round your table! Keep them there a while!
Your specialty dessert is still bubbling in the oven!

Clear those plates away now...the pets are waiting!
Family is everyone, today! Go into the kitchen now...
Take that desert out the oven...sprinkle brandy on it,
Bring it to the table, beautifully flaming!

Those gathered, are unloosing another notch just
Looking at it! Oooohhhhssss, aaaahhhhssss,
They're all yours to receive, and give again...

Seconds anyone?
