Sunshine berry jam




                                         


Sunshine-berry jam 

Here's a secret  recipe,

Passed down since time began, 

From Grandma's hands to Aunty-Anne's, 

For  sunshine-berry jam.


You start by sending Rosa-lee 

To ring dear Sara's bell, 

With one large bowl of  homemade smiles

And  wishes  to get- well. 


Then call your dear friend  Ellie- May   

To ask  "how is  your Mom?" 

And here's some fresh baked muffins

And a jar of homemade jam

Then run along and tidy up, 

(Make sure to wipe the sills) 

And don't to stop and pick 

Some sunny daffodils.


Put one  bunch on the table

And small one by the sink, 

To cheer the one who washes. 

While they hum along and sing:


" The secret to good recipes, 

What makes life so de-lish, 

Is sharing  what you have inside, 

The kindness in your wish.


It's all the love you pour into  

The small things that you do, 

The comfort, hope and hugs that go 

Into a bowl of  soup. 


So here's the secret recipe,

Passed down since time began 

From grandmas hands to aunty Anne's, 

For  sunshine-berry  jam:


You start with one large cup of love 

Two pounds of hope and faith 

Three heaping spoons of laughter 

And touch of social grace.


Combine these all with humor,

Simmer low, with loving care, 

When all the giggles bubble up- 

You'll have sweet jam to share!
