We made lists
Of things we inherited
Someone got
Grandma’s fabled recipes
The disinterested non–foodies yawned
Why Grandpa never had recipes to bequeath?
Was told he was the one who ensured
Plates filled with hot bread
Thanksgiving at the table
I was happy to have inherited
An uncle’s sense of humor
Saying all that was inappropriate
On age and sex
So timed to perfection
I remember a niece got
An old crossword book
In crocheted cover
