This poem was a Runner Up. No prize… but well done!
100g of butter to soften her up
300g of sugar to sweeten her up
A pinch of chili to fire her up
50g of flour and mix her up
1tsp of essence to make her smell nice
3 pinches of brown sugar to tan her up right
2 tsp of baking powder to puffen her up right
A splash of love and a sprinkle of fun.
Put her into the oven to get golden brown.
A mother like mine is rare
so it would be right to call her ‘mine’
with a four leaf clover to finish her off
to make her come alive,
that’s why she is mine.
