A Merry Caw

Our motto is, "In God We Trust"
Because a god does not know lust
We kick up dust
Because we must
Get all the bread but not the crust!

Naught to worry as your God made certain it continues to salivate at the mere whiff of a pheromone!

Mahalo, Belle! I saw on TV a mother cutting off the crusts of sandwiches for her children . . . .

American train rides never matched III-class rides in Europe, but at least in the 1950s, those in uniform could anticipate a cold beer rather than a beating! Aloha!

The crust keeps gums and teeth healthy, so I don't know why people choose to leave it! Thank you for reading and commenting! Aloha!
