The Grand Jam Cotillion


Ah, at a magnificent place 'twas
this ball held!
With gorgeous jam debutantes,
arriving one by one.
Sorry you were not there!
To behold the debutantes and
their escorts gliding down the 
winding stairs
Such beautiful faces,and all 
superbly trained in fine cotillion 
graces.

First came Rose Petal and Seville
Orange, a stunning pair!

Then Honeysuckle and Sir Hawthorne, 
so stunning they drove the crowd wild.

Next, the gorgeous Pearadise
and Sir Quince, so gorgeous we
all did wince!

Cherry and the famed Knight
Elderberry made all heads turn.

Sparkling Dandelion and Prince
Habanero, so lovely, struck our
hearts like arrows.

The Viennese Waltzes began,
a night so memorable.
We all applauded such gorgeous
couples.
Mesmerized by such grace beyond
finite.
Each couple,bowed and left us "
eventually.
With dreams of next years cotillion,
We all pledged to be!

 of homemade jams and jellies.
