Kim Rodrigues Poet Verse

Dunking Cookies While It Rains

Yum!
Sugars and butter -
cream them together.
White and brown mix ‘round.
Flour, salt, baking powder,
vanilla…fond scent…
add chips, scoop, wait - while they bake.

choc’late chip cookie
broke in half into his cup -
splash of milk in eye

grandma and grandson munching on cookies
our laughs are grand too…splashes
occur in and outside ;)

grandma runs off…he asks:
“are you writing a poem?”
“Of course!” she winks,
as he washes the milk from his eye.
