Moist, but not necessarily chewy – v3

Climbing into the car after the school day

Asking for details, the truth

the girls in the back seat

the chocolate already consumed

before asking, allowing

more candy to be enjoyed

Two brownies was her answer

wanting more information

asking if they were chewy

Moist was her response

Moist, but not necessarily chewy

to her older sister’s consternation

Enjoying a laugh on the way home

after the school’s Valentine’s Day

her answer precise, perfect

something for the memory books

that her brownies were moist,

but not necessarily chewy
