Popcorn

1955
I am nine
Trying to pop
Corn on the gas
Stove without
Burning it a
Trick I’ve
Seen
My elder
Sisters do
So having popped
The corn and dumped
It in a great big bowl
I melt some butter
In a saucepan
Then pour it
Over the
Fresh
Salted
Popcorn
Take it into
The TV room
Where it instantly
Disappears into
My sibs to my
Horrors but I
Learn to eat
Some prior
To serving
My sibs.
