Use the Good China

Poetry Jam

Food For Thought

Use the good glass
Times like these will not last
Fresh flowers in a vase
Cloth napkins always in their space

Use all the serving plates and dishes
Share your gratitude and wishes
Here's time to learn together
Food show love now and forever

Use desert to slow the pace
Slow the time together from a race
Thoughtfully serve a beautiful plate
Dinner is not a starting gate.

Use food daily to celebrate
Because every day is a special date
Putting a cherry on the top

Seems to say Love does not stop

  4. I agree about using the good glassware, the good china. Why save them for a tomorrow that may or may not ever come. Use them NOW with love in the banquet of life.
