Ingredients

HAPPINESS

by Lydia O. Jackson

The kettle hummed a greeting;

The kitten streched and mewed;

The rocking chair invited;

The baby smiled and cooed.

The pinafore enveloped

The mother young and fair,

And toys much loved and cherished

Were scattered here and there.

Geraniums were blooming

In pots along the sill,

And curtains fluttered gaily

For they were edged in frill.

A bowl of bright red apples

Stood upon a shelf of pine,

And fancy cups and saucers

Displayed a rose design.

Bright braided rugs were scattered

Upon a polished floor,

while sunshine streamed through windows

And also through the door.

The gingerbread was baking,

Its luscious fragrance filled the air

And the room seemed filled with magic . . .

For happiness was everywhere.

KITCHEN MAGIC

by Violet Rouke Broder

When gray days sometimes leave you

At a loss for what to do,

Fill your house with warth and fragrance . . .

Bake a pie, a cake, or two.

Make some heart-shaped sugar cookies

Or a creamy pudding, fine;

A batch of fudge or brownies

Helps to pass the gloomy time.

A tin of golden muffins

Or some loaves pf fresh-baked bread,

I am sure will be more pleasing

Then some "store-bought" bread, instead.

What a thoughtful, cheery greeting

For your loved ones . . . at the door

When they sniff your homemade goodies,

Wafting welcome evermore.

Directions

These were the poems in the middle of the book. So I thought I would put them out here too.
