Chicken and dumplings
on a cold rainy day
broth is boiling
it’s grandmother’s way
Next comes
cream of mushroom soup
simmering in the broth
stirring up the scoops
Ten minutes later
cutting biscuit dough into strips
time to add the dumplings
adding slowly is the trick
Finally the meat
rotisserie chicken adds flavor
simmering for ten more minutes
smells to savor
Sitting by the fire
eating heaven in a bowl
grandmother’s distant hug
comfort for the soul
