Poetry Glacé

DAILY SNACK

We were eating our dessert at the kitchen table, when L’il I woke up.

She’d been having digestive complaints and I helped settle her back down to sleep.

I returned to the table and sat down next to Young C.

He said, “And there he was, eating his ice cream.”

“It’s a poem, Mom.”

Wow. It sure is. “I like your literary sensibility, C.”

“Thanks, Mom. I like your ice cream.”
