Serve It Hot, by D Schneid

(My sister wrote this when she was 14, in the 80s, before our family had a microwave.  Since I favor it, and she doesn’t post poems, I put it here:)

Shove it in the oven
Or plop it on the stovetop
When you serve supper,
Serve it hot.

Your sister's poem has a nursery rhyme timelessness. It's fun!
