Poetry In Your Pudding

A young Mom was trying to help her son with his homework and asked "does anyone know what poetry in your pudding" means?  I think I do, it's finding the beauty and pleasure and inspiration in the simplest of things (like my bathroom scale!)

my morning oatmeal
seeing the moon when I pick up the paper
Dolly and her ball
a good news text
a cinnamon stick in my low-cal hot cider

PS I was so fortunate to have a father who read poetry to me...
