A Mother's Recipe
Place it on a baking tray.
Glaze its soft skin with
egg whites,
watch him laugh as it tickles his
feet.
A penny for each eye(I
think they're blue), and a
small apple in his
mouth, it fits
with difficulty.
Give a small but
affectionate kiss to his
forehead,
bitterly condemning those who ever doubted your abilities
to hell,
and slide into a
preheated oven.
Cook until body is a dark
shade of brown and
fingers are crispy.
Let cool,
..and sink your
teeth into the joy of
motherhood.

Very Nice Alina.... "bitterly condemned those who ever doubted your abilities" ~ good point.. Too often, are mothers abilities and their instincts questionable if they are are not seen as the same of others. Keep up the GOOD work... ~PEACE OUT
