Weekly Prompt – Dainty

Put out your pinkie drinking your tea

Use a napkin, be dainty when crumbs start to flee

Etiquette is always important you see

Don’t slurp your soup or crunch too loud

Be polite even in a crowd

These lessons I learned as a child

But it seems to me you’ve just run wild

Parents have certain obligations

Maybe that’s why leaders of nations

Say and do whatever they please

Long gone are the efforts to please.
