Old Buck Poet Rhyme

Thank You Miss Maddy

THANK YOU MISS MADDY

Maddy baked some cookies,
She shared a few with us.
When we took a little taste
We got a full flavor rush.

For hidden in those cookies
Buried away down deep
We found some flavor chips
A great big giant heap.

There were many different kinds
A virtual rainbow of rich flavors.
Each one seemed a favorite
My sweet tooth often savors.

But have I mentioned the size
Of these tasty, giant hub caps.
You can’t eat a whole one
Or they’ll begin to play taps.

We found it best to break it up
Sharing each one with a friend
Or you might simple burst
Before you reach its end.

So here’s a “Hats off”
To our new family cook.
If she keeps this up,
I’ll need my belt to unhook.

Thank you Miss Maddy
For sharing them with us.
As you practice techniques.
You’ll make extra, we trust. :o)

Shared her first batch of cookies.

Paul Callus November 21, 2018 at 11:46 AM Undoubtedly you made Maddy's day by dedicating a delightful poem about her initial attempts at cooking. A bit of encouragement goes a long way. Regards // paul Old Buck November 21, 2018 at 11:52 AM Paul: Thanks for reading and responding to my silly rhyme. She is a lovely young lady that has an endless smile. I would love to have her remember me in years to come as supportive and encouraging rather than just grumpy. Thanks again for your thoughtful remarks. oldbuck

Tim Smith November 9, 2015 at 6:02 PM I love baking cookies with my daughters Old Buck. My oldest daughter is now an exceptional baker at 16. Old Buck November 9, 2015 at 6:34 PM Tim: That sounds like fun, but truth is, I'm more of an eater than baker. :o) I think that's from living with a great cook for over 55 years. Thanks for your thoughtful response to my foolishness. oldbuck

Jan Allison November 9, 2015 at 2:50 PM Aww I bet they were simply delicious Old Buck - and we were rewarded with a delightful poem:-)hugs Jan xx Old Buck November 9, 2015 at 4:24 PM Jan: They actually were very good. This was written as a Thank you card for Maddy but I put it on soup thinking there might be other parents / grand parents that would enjoy reading it and remembering a similar experience with one of their own. I'm glad you enjoyed it. oldbuck
