Chocolate Gravy
The ride is as long and boring as could be.
So I sit and watch leaves fall from the trees. Then I heard her say hello.
And out of the car, I was sure to go.
The smell of bacon pleases me.
As I sit under the big tree.
There are eggs, biscuits, sausage, and bacon. What I notice the most is the gravy or was I mistaken.
The regular gravy that I put on my biscuit.
But this one, this one was way different.
Dark and creamy, no chunks at all.
But before I could ask, I heard “ Come and eat y’all. “
It’s different now with her not here.
This is the one thing that I had feared.
I knew her time was soon to be.
Not that soon I hoped, but now she’s free.
But now I know, as time has passed.
That I wish she had seen me last.
The memories are very wavy.
But sometimes I wish I had some chocolate gravy.
