Boys Are That Way
As a kid I wanted to run errands
across the hills to neighbors’ houses.
That was quite natural for me, as I
hated anything that looked like work, i
But there was one place I always
liked to run errands to. And that was

that was, she was so good to kids.
And she cooked that delicious treat
to a Dutchman, mixed bread, every
[day.

that fresh butter, she would plaster
shut all of the holes in that warm
piece of bread, and the crust side
[kept it from running through. Then
on top of that she would spread
blackberry jelly. And as she hand
ed me what I had come to borrow,
she would give me this piece of pure
