Birthday Cake--A Poem in Five Voices
BIRTHDAY CAKE Measuring Spoons Our advice? Be precise. Kitchen Aid I stand… I mix, blend, whip, stir, knead… at your command. Cake Pans We’re fickle. Three layers stick whenever we pick. Violets on the Windowsill We choose purple for our blooms. You make the air go blue because of what the pans decided to do. Table Come sit. Unwind. Write a bit. Find the humor in all of it. Be resigned, start again. Don’t quit.© Mary Lee Hahn, 2012
