Regardless of the reason,
I said my thanks and cut myself
a portion of the stack.


Raising a forkful of the fluffy pancakes to my mouth,

I munched down happily,
letting the delicate texture spread on my taste buds.
Sweet from the syrup,
yet savory from the butter;
the tastes mixed together perfectly.
Delicious.


                "How is it?"

Mother asked, smiling sweetly.


              "Very good."

I answered after finishing my first bite.


"Have more then. There's plenty."

               She urged.


               And so I did.


Stack after stack, 

I consumed

until the memory of the taste
was all that was left at the table.
