i want your corn bread

it was the best corn bread
i ever
put in my mouth.
stuffed full of real corn.
soft and thick
with butter
and sugar.
she bragged about her
corn bread
and had every right to do so.
it was blue ribbon
corn bread.
the winner at the county
fair five years in a row.
three men married her
because of it.
i wish i had the recipe
but she's not returning 
my calls.
