Springerle

This poem is autobiographical. Springerle were good cookies to send to American troops in Germany during the Second World War because they had no butter. Only three ingredients; eggs, butter, and flour. I have my own mold, now, and bake them every December.

The poem is published in Hawaii Pacific Review: https://hawaiipacificreview.org/2019/04/29/springerle/?fbclid=IwAR1Ruv_vANQiSA4KYGif8pBqJpkoRtZ_8ihcEGNcj-Se5pYbl19Ycn-bIPM
