EATING COOKIES
The great shift happens around us
Swirling like sage smoke
Calling to be inside our home
As well inside all we inhabit
So goodbye big bag of semi-sweet
Chocolate chips from Costco
No more partying in that cabinet
With the liquor
On the floor above you
Enjoy your future with Magda
Who leaves tomorrow
She has promised to bring
Chocolate chip cookies
Down in the future
A blessing for all
Of us to share

hahahahahahaha! I knew the moment I saw the title it HAD to be from one of your kids! I love it! Chocolate chips too! This NaPo has had to be the most fun for you and your family, Kumar! It's certainly been fun to read.

The funny thing is Auryn doesn’t have the sweet tooth his sister and mama have, but I guess everyone loves a good cookie! Thanks Aha.

I'm glad you said "chocolate chip cookies" and not 'hobnobs', otherwise some 'woke' person might have chipped in with a 'problematic' about the word hobnobs being 'phallo-centric' 😊
