The allure of pie making
Faded quickly.
I no longer had three sons
Vying for a chance to peel apples.
Today just one, who willingly
Tried cutting,
Who peeled without complaint,
And, when finished, found another
Small task to do so I didn’t have to.
I appreciated the help, certainly.
But even more I appreciated
The initiative, seeing
What needed to be done,
And doing it
Without being asked.
