I
Born out of the milkchurn,
unsalted and golden
taking a morning trip onto
toast, crumpets and scones
even the odd fish or two
remarkable
II
Brought together with flour and sugar
up in the kitchen
there’s something sweet cooking,
the mix is in the oven, but
everyone knows the best part of the prep – licking the
round mixing spoon and the bowl
III
Building blocks for Bakers
using fat for a meat pie might be ok – but
the sweet stuff needs something for
the fillings to accompany it – providing an
envelope for the fruit to go in ,
roundly eaten off with custard or cream
