                                             A Gift of Omelettes

                                               For Max and Tod

We leave the comfort of a little fire
And repair to the kitchen for a morning repast
Of bacon crisp, of toast from homebaked bread
And omelettes more golden than the morning sun

The dogs come with us, for something good might fall
To be nipped before it ever hits the floor
And the fireside conversation begun
Continues around the festive Dickension board

Old friends, old dogs, and Christmas coming soon
And omelettes - altogether a happy boon!
