- consider critical decisions are made here,
- arts projects are constructed,
- it's where cookies cool on baking racks,
- a place of science project experiments,
- meals spread out,
- tearful entreaties are waged,
- deals are signed,
- agreements confirmed,
- birthday cakes song over the warmth of the table,
- purposeful food dropped to open mouths of begging pets,
- flowers proudly displayed,
- devotions prayed and discussed around,
- and where family gathers
There are no punishments meted out over the kitchen table,
it isn't a place for consequence,
Rather,
it's a place of joy, of memories, of laughter,
It's my favorite kind of place.
