Comfort Food

Lately it’s been
Comfort food
Fun, Fun, Fun
Night after night
Nachos when Carol
Our neighbor fell by
For a feed
Jamaican Jerk drumsticks
In the Cosori
Not long ago
Juicy and perfect
Too spicy for the Mrs.
So it goes
For the last two meals
The now famous
Rice and beans
Thanks for all
The cards and letters
Beanises Pip calls them
Sure is good
With me back
In the kitchen
Reactivated from
Injured reserves
Yet again rattling
Pots and pans
Some ladies just
Make reservations
You know who you are
No shame, no blame
Me likes to cook
Tonight that old fave
Mac and Cheese
Gluten free of course
Nice and creamy
Got two packs
Of cheese ends
At Big Y
On the cheap
Prices being
Plum crazy nowadays
Just ordinary shopping
Nothing all that fancy
Two hundred bucks
There goes the inheritance
Can’t take it with you
We like to cut corners
With cheap eats
Right darn righteous when
It sure tastes good
