Cookies
Edited:
Cutting sugar cookies
on the Formica counter top.
Shapes of Christmas trees,
snowflakes and gingerbread men.
Pudgy hands working,
a concentrated effort
to not let the dough fall apart,
from atop a red foot stool.
How difficult can it be
moving a cookie?
It takes a steady hand
to guide it to the pan.
Grandma's hands
are very steady,
perhaps giving in
is the best decision.

How difficult can it be
moving a cookie?
It takes a steady hand
and a gentler touch.
