bowl on the porch

i put a bowl of candy
on the porch
and let the kids go at it.
taking
as much as they can.
bite sized bars, gum,
the usual sugary
sweets you buy
at every store.
the boys take way more than
their share,
while the girls, polite and demure,
take one,
or two, then go to next
house.
in ten minutes it's all gone.
that was easy.
