The Broke Baker

The Broke Baker kneaded dough
so his kids could eat.

He baked a crispy breadspread
for a midnight treat.
And under that he placed
a kingsize cookie sheet.
Then he glazed marshpillows
to make the meal complete.

After which his hungry kids.
'Could go to bed and eat'.

Very good, Rusty-friend. Someone mentioned the Brothers Grimm and I would have to agree. Very much reminiscent of their work. I loved this.
Love,
CJ

Oh this is clever...rmember the times we sneaked some food into our rooms living in a hostel...cleaning your mouth with the curtain in the dark when you hear someone coming down tha hall!!

I did it once with marmite...use to eat it straight from the bottle with my finger!! And those crumbs in the bed!!

love Tinka
