Madam Truffle

The ticking of the oven clock never annoys Madam Truffle

while she's baking her famous goodies. The crowd lines up

outside the door and lets out a giant roar, when she peeks 

out from the blinds and then opens up the store.



Peach, Cherry, Boysenberry tarts, even the dentist lets her

daughter fill up her cart baked in shapes of growling 

tigers and frowning Napoleon Bonapartes. Madam 

Truffle turns the baking of pastries into an art!



As night descends and before she goes to sleep, she

must take a little peek into a shoebox she hides

behind the dresser. It's contents fill her heart with fear,

she will surely never throw it away, she has to look inside

the box at the close of every day.



Birds on the windowsill always sing for Madam Truffle

to help her wake up on time in the morning she stacks the goodies on the shelves

so the folks can help themselves some parents tried to tell

their kids that she gets help from tiny elves.



Peach cherry boysenberry tarts and the dentist lets her daughter fill up her cart

baked in shapes soft monkey faces and Kris Kristofferson ?? ? ?  

Madam Truffle turns the baking of pastries into an art.



As night descends and before she goes to sleep, she

must take a little peek into the shoebox that she hides

behind the dresser. She is sadly aware she will never know

the love of a man or he'd be sure to find the box and would never understand.



Misery and loneliness seldom befall Madam Truffle

while she's baking her famous goodies.
