Tears Two vitamins were dispensed in the yellow kitchen And long I stood and tried to hand out one to the boy who stood by me side. And both those vitamins equally lay. in colors the rainbow made. Oh I gave one to the girl and one to the boy by a choice no thought directed.

Two vitamins were dispensed in a yellow kitchen And I, I gave the wrong color to the boy at my side And that has made all the difference. I shall be telling this with a sigh some where ages and ages hence two vitamins were dispensed in a yellow kitchen and the boy dissolved into tears.

based on "The Road less traveled" by Robert Frost.

Emma at 6 Sitting on the couch The once little girl reads her magazine.

No sound escapes Her mouth doesn't move She no longer needs my help.

In the Kitchen Some one's in the kitchen with Mommy Someone's in the kitchen I know Some one's in the kitchen with Mommy Playing with water in the sink

And screaming I don't have enough room I don't have enough rooooom You're hogging all the scoopers You're hogging all the scoopers Standing on 2 wooden chairs.

Someone's in the kitchen with Mommy Someone'sin the kitchen I knoooow Soomeone's in the kitchen with Mommy Helping to chop the vegetables.

And saying, I want a real knife I want a real kniiiife I need more to chop I need more to cho-o-o-p, Slicing those mushrooms up.

based on the folk song "Someone's in the Kitchen with Dinah"
