The Magic Bowl

The magic bowl…

There once lived a magic bowl,
who helped the young at breakfast time,
but how the magic was performed
was never known to I;
the porridge would be eaten,
spoon by spoon, bite by bite,
and when the porridge was nearly gone,
there was a lovely sight;
for in the bottom of the bowl,
each and every time,
a flower magically appeared,
of gold and blue and white;
but perhaps the greatest magic
of that bowl at breakfast time
was helping the young to eat their porridge,
every morn at nine.
