                        Burnt Bottom Cookies



























Sitting ‘round the breakfast bar

four women fresh from lunch.

I bound upstairs from afar

thoughts of what I’d munch.


Sure I thought, a peach or pear

perhaps a tangerine…

           

I said to all those in a row,

I’m starved beyond repair.

 

That pang I feel within my gut

is not my missing hair.

I want, I need, I have a hunch.

can’t anybody share?

 

Some burnt bottom cookies

the  girls exclaimed!!!

Chocolate chip or oatmeal,

the choice is surely yours.

 

Now, I like muffin tops

and love pistachios

any kind of fruit or wine

and always chocolate.

 

But burnt bottom cookies?

mmmm!! So tasty and devine.                      

Helped launch me into orbit,

and made my day so fine...

I can't say I've ever relished in cookies that were burnt on the bottom (I like chocolate cookies warm and soft) but you've made it sound appetizing and interesting. I'll keep this in mind and wait around about ten minutes longer if I ever decide to have some.

a whimsical tribute to burnt bottom cookies. i picture your 4th grade character asking his mom to burn them just for him.
