BREAD

 

Knead the dough
Please, more flour
Before your roll

Endless attending
Carefully administering
Exerting bosom heaving

Keeping it pliable
Wet intermediately
Moisten malleable
It molds more easily

A gentle ponding
Carefully dominating
Fingers probing
Wheat and yeast forming

Moist lips dusted with leaven
Sighing groaning sweating dainty  
‘Oh God in Heaven!’
How you work the pastry

Exhausted, step aside
Rest now woman
And witness it rise
Then put it in your oven
