but they had fun

 

There was batter in the mixing bowl

and splatter on the walls,

the girls were making cookies

and having quite a ball,

chocolate chips were everywhere

some flew across the room

with the beaters running up on high

everything went Zoom.

One wanted thick and fluffy

the other wanted crunch –

both were hoping they be done

in time enough for lunch,

people heard the sirens

neighbor’s saw the smoke,

of the day the girls made cookies

no one ever spoke.
