“Less Talkin More Eatin”

“Less Talkin More Eatin”

So she used to say,

When we sat like chatterboxes

With time slipping away.

School bells didn’t wait for us

We needed to be on time.

But we weren’t so concerned then

Way back in the prime

Of the days when it was lollipops

And cinnamon n’ raisin biscuits

With ice cream money in the mix

And of course a dental visit.

But it was in MawMaw’s kitchen

For breakfast in the morn,

Where the “Less Talkin More Eatin”

Memory was born.
