PIZZA FOR SUPPER
Pizza for supper, for some that’s a treat,
But for others an emergency it does meet.
Most families can’t agree what goes on top,
An armistice is called to make the noise stop.
Half Hawaiian, the other has extra pepperoni
Hope it takes half an hour so get it for free,
Now do we phone and pick it up, save a tip,
Or scrounge a little change and save the trip?
Now which pizza place does someone call?
No one can agree which is the best of all,
Even mom who will have to cook a meal
Does not think the prize is worth the ordeal.
So why not go out to eat and have a real treat,
Where? That is the problem, we face another feat,
To make up our minds where we should all go,
I will leave it in the air, because I don’t know!
