Around the Dinner Table
By Roslyn T
We tell each other everything.
How our day was,
What we think,
Feelings are expressed
We are dressed to impress
Stories are shared, jokes are compared
Around the dinner table
Mouths munch
And the common sound goes CRUNCH!
Once we have finished
We pack up, as our stomachs grumble
Nothing humble.
Around the family circle
Knives and forks dance and clink
Later in the sink.
Like long lost family meeting once again.
Although it is sadly over,
Tomorrow it will start again
Around the dinner table.
