Grandma's pantry was a fright,

with empty tin cans & a broken light.


Food stuffed here and there

not even Grandma knew where.


The mice couldn't stand that place

They would look for cheese & pull out lace


Some of the things they ate without suggestion

gave them all acute indigestion.



I'll never forget Grandma's pantry

Where the food dare not spoil.

I'd look for candy in that pantry

And come up with Castor Oil.
