Childhood sounds of home
Mom always awake at 5 am
Coffeepot perking
“Daylight in the swamp”
Was Dad’s morning wakeup call
Much to my chagrin
Mom’s much used words
You “Always” and/or “Never”
Negative tone
Norwegian songs
Joke telling laughter among
Card game smack talk
Homemade bread
With butter, after school snack
Made with Mom’s hands
Sunday softball games
Family chatter at dinner
Mom’s hot apple pie
Family and friends
Summer picnics at the park
Swimming at the lake
Senryu Cascade
Leonas Lines--Poetry Plus 
A delightful read
Thank you Kristel.
