The Routine

In the kitchen
We all pitch in
Only if I tell you to

Wash the dishes
“Smells delicious!”
Did I say that you could try that?

Set the table
As we’re able
The fork goes on the left…

In the garden
Bring Swiss chard in
Only pick the leaves.

Pickin’ veggies
Pickin’ wedgies
Stop that!  That’s disgusting!

Call together
Birds of feather
Dinner’s ready, everyone!
