We took what I thought worth taking,
A soup of my own making…
Boiled cabbage and ham
But no thank you Ma’am,
Just me and the wife were taking.
–
Competition was rather strong,
Lasagna and casserole gone…
What little we ate
I’d consolidate
And use for suppers till gone!
–
I had someone’s lemon meringue,
Almost too sweet–no tang–
Along with ice cream
(And lasagna again!),
Enough food for the whole gang!
–
My wife left her pink NORTH CREEK hat,
I’m rescuing stuff like that…
Everyone knows
Keeping track of clothes
Is anything but old hat!
