A HARD COOKIE TO CRACK

Whatever Happen

To My Cookie

That was also Sweet?.


Did I Leave it

To Long

Let it Become

UN sweet?


What was Holding

My Cookie

That Changed its Taste?.


What Container

Did I Use

That Should have

Kept it Sweet?


What was in or Wasn't

That was

Suppose To Be?


Who Took The Cookie

From The Jar

Placed it

On The Shelve.


Let it Lose

All its Flavor

Making it

Hard as Nails.


What a Cookie

It would Be

If I Could

Crack it Up

Making it Soft Again .


Making it know

It Can be Sweet

If it finds Itself a Jar

Not Staying

On a Shelve.


What a Treat

To Know

It is There

Fresh as The Flower.


Not Hard as Nails

What A Hammer

I would Use

To Crack

A Cookie Open.


To See what is There

Knowing

What made it Hard.


Next Time

I'll put You

In a Heart

A Cookie of a Jar.

A Poeatreeman

I Much Rather Have A Cookie
That is Moist and Tender
it May Fall Apart But Also Sweet
Rather Than A Hard and Brittle
Where its Crumbs Beneath My Feet
If This is Hard
Than You'll Know How Hard it is.

Dedicated To Tremaine

FOR ONE JUST MADE
YOU ARE ALL TOO HARD

ONE COOKIE BITTERSWEET

If I Used A Cup Of Tea
Would You Soften Up For Me

If I Used Care
Would You Stay As Sweet

If I Used Flower
Would You Grind Me To The Floor

If I Used Starch
Would You Stiffen Up On Me

If I Used Gluten
Would You Stick Me On The Wall

If I Used Butter
Would You Fall Away From Me

If I Used Sugar
Would You Sweeten Up At All

If I Used Water
Would You Feel Any Softer

If I Used Yeast
Would You Raise Me To The Ceiling

If I Used Salt
Would That Make You All The More

If I Used Pepper
Would You Sneeze Me To Beyond

God Bless You
Thank You I am Here Already

If I Used Eggs
Would You Scramble Me Instead

What A Mix That Would Be
Maybe That's The Key?

If I Gave You All I Have
Would You Make A Better Cookie?

If You Gave All You Have
Than What A Cookie You Would Be

Also Sweet and None Too Soft
A Kind Anyone Would Love To Have.

A Poeatreeman

What Fills You Up
Will Pour From You
What Taste You'll Have
May Be Hard To Swallow
Your Cookie Your Treat
I Don't Have To Bite Into it
I Like To Know its Sweet
One Cookie Hard To Swallow
Take it With Some Care
Understand What's There
Dip it in A Tear
To Soften What's Inside
Knowing it Can Be
All You Thought it Was.
