A Toast To My Daughter

Into the livingroom she came,
wiping the sleep from her eyes
and we snuggled close.
But moment together
was short-lived.
She was hungry for breakfast.
So she ran to the kitchen
to fix us both a piece
of strawberry toast.

And we sat together
side by side
and touched
our square crunchy pieces
slathered in strawberry jelly
together.

We toasted each other
with toast
and giggled.
How fun to enjoy each other
in this way.
