Ma Dears Teacakes

papa's gone fishing down to the lake i peeked in the cupboard for something sweet to bake i only had one cup of flour and enough sugar to count one hour my grandma's not awake it's ok because she taught me to bake i looked in that cupboard for something for savoring and way in the back was 1tbsp of vanilla flavoring i reached in as my fingers were at a halt that's when i waisted a pinch of salt there was a corner of baking powder right next to the clam chowder i remember the eggs softly beaten i hope she wakes soon before they are all eaten this recipe in my mind makes my soul shakes as i remembered the recipe for ma dear's tea cakes
