Shrove Tuesday ~ Pancake Day!
I think that I shall never
see
A pancake paired with
Cornish Tea
A fresh baked scone with
clotted cream
Yes it's a Roman Catholic's
dream
Shrove Tuesday / Pancake Day
is here
Confession time ~ nothing to
fear
Saint Pancake says it's
meant to be
Feast first and then a fast
for me
Pancakes last the whole
day long
I need those carbs to keep me
strong
Through forty days and forty
nights
A Lenten season marked by
rites
Then with a flourish it will
end
Rebirth the message that we
send
And back to what was meant
to be
Pancakes with my Cornish Tea
