NaPoWriMo 2022: Day 16

Prompt: write a curtal sonnet.

The best dish you will ever find on the table
When it comes time for the holiday meal
Is the pan of bubbling, creamy, good potatoes
I will share with you the recipe as best as I am able
Start with frozen hashbrowns, cubed, no seasoning or peel
Dice some yellow onion, guarding your eyes and nose

Cream of mushroom soup, salt and pepper are shelf-stable
Mix with sour cream and cheese, shredded is ideal
Stir until it’s ready, fear not–your heart knows
Coat crushed corn flakes with butter (not frosted! check the label)
Bake till bubbly at 350—even if you froze
