A reading night needs provisions

The teacake tin agrees

One little teacake, dusted sweet

Beside the fresh refill

The perfect size for one more chapter

Or two more, if you will

Crumbs are permitted after dark

That's reading-nest law

A bite, a sip, a page, repeat

The evening's sweetest measure

Pleasant words are honeycomb

And so's a well-timed treasure

The lamb sits at the table's edge

Where crumb-fall odds are best

Its patience is professional

Its manners: barely dressed

One corner shared, as is the rule

The reading pact holds true

A bite, a sip, a page, repeat

The evening's sweetest measure

Pleasant words are honeycomb

And so's a well-timed treasure

Small snacks and chapters go together

Like lamps and easy chairs

The book provides the banquet and

The teacake just the airs

Mmm... mmm... mmm

A bite, a sip, a page, repeat

The evening's sweetest measure

Pleasant words are honeycomb

And so's a well-timed treasure

A bite, a sip, a page, repeat

The evening's sweetest measure

Pleasant words are honeycomb

And so's a well-timed treasure

The teacake tin is lighter now

The bookmark's moved along
