the queen of desserts would set
her pies
and cakes
out on the back porch
screened in
but open to the weather
and cold.
and when everything
was left out
over night,
the day before thanksgiving,
and froze, how she cried
and cried.
until we comforted her,
telling her everything
will be alright,
then turned on
the stove.
