A Cherry Perfect Birthday
Tomorrow we will celebrate my sixth year jubilee
with a little party just for my family.
Grandma’s going to catentate
cherries and lard and flour
and add a bit of sugar to make the fruit less sour,
then proceed to put it in the oven to cook up
into my favorite cherry pie upon which we will sup.
Thus will fruit and grain and fat conspire to create
a birthday treat the thoughts of which make me salivate.
Birds may like cherries in the wild directly off the tree,
but baked into my grandma’s pie tastes way better to me!!!!
Prompts for today are: jubilee, proceed, pastry, catenate (to join together), bird and grain.
Happy birthday?

Hmmm — catentate — a new one for me! Hope the 76th year is (was?) good!
