The Savory Side Of Oatmeal

February 12, 2014
By Anonymous

That warm gooey mush
commonly found in a retirement home
it makes an old lady blush
even sweeter than honey comb

Its the taste of retirement
with six different oats
and no age requirement
best with milk from goats

i'm talkin’ about oatmeal
a dish best served warm
this is the real deal
for old people this is a norm
