The Drum


by raymond alexander kukkee


"I want that " the  four-year old said, poking about  in the pantry. Packages rattled.
"This too",  he said.  Baking supplies collected quickly on the counter.
Pointed out with the long wooden spoon,  nuts, raisins and chocolate chips were picked out in a flash
 "Just in time! he said, beating on the lid of an empty tin.
" Look what I found! The secret ingredient!"  
I shook my head.. "It's empty".
"A drum!...You mix,  I drum,!"  the little curly-headed one said, laughing, banging loudly on the  tin can.  Instant Migraine. The secret ingredient.
