Pickles

Bread on the counter
Mayonnaise spread
Cucumbers suspended
Green,green aquarium...with
salty green vinegar cloves
bouncing and teasing...
(and my mouth is watering).
RAYMOND!
Grandma is spent,
She's a flapper
Jars aren't jazz
and her Grandchildren are wanting.
Pickles are pucker.
Our cheeks know it.
If only Grandpa could...
POP! Goes the top.
Grandpa is strong.
Will I ever be like him?
