Poetry in Motion

Snack time can be a little difficult at times in this house. Therefore, negotiations have become somewhat of an art form.

Me:
Grapes are good!
Grapes are great!
We like to eat them on our plate.

Luke:
You know what rhymes with eat?
Treat!
And grapes are definitely NOT what I want to eat while sitting in this seat!

Quite literally negotiation as an art form; poetry in motion to negotiate the terms of the food that will be consumed. And if you look quite closely at the following picture you'll see Luke pushing his grapes across the table. He'll have to create an even better rhyme if thinks he's getting chocolate!
