Grannys Oven

granny’s oven began working in the twenties, and working strong
she was baking pies, cookies, cakes, and muffins all winter long
it is 1959 and her oven is still working her baking heart away.
you can hear it heating up at the beginning of every single day.

her scones are delicious, her pineapple upside down cake a delight.
she sometimes bakes raspberry cobblers way into the night.
granny never lets company step a foot inside without a treat.
her oven is her conspirator, and we all think this is truly neat.
