Meadow Muffins
It sounds like a breakfast treat,
but be forewarned: it’s not to eat.
Your appetite may disagree;
so, go ahead, take a bite and see.
But my advice, if I were you,
is get some jam before you do,
or butter, if that’s your preference;
it’ll make a big taste difference.
And if organic is your latest thing
here’s more advice worth hearing:
Meadow muffins are made each day –
right from the oven, you might say.
So come early when they’re warmest,
don’t cheat your palette, get the freshest!
Now, we Yankees ain’t a fancy folk;
plain as they come is the usual trope.
But hard-nosed Yankees do admit:
no matter how you camouflage it,
no matter how you care to eat it,
meadow muffins are still cow s--t!
