Late yesterday afternoon,
while Mom went out to Camps to pick blackberries
I stayed home to prepare your favorite dish
sausage and potatoes/
I knew you would savor it
a main dish of your childhood
so I brought your picture down
in honor of the occasion
and the pleasant aroma
circled your likeness/
It was as good as usual
and just-picked blackberries
and ice cream
for dessert/
