Nana’s delicious drop scones ?

Nana’s delicious drop scones ?

Sifting self raising flour into a bowl
I use my wooden spoon and indent a little hole
I add two free range eggs into my flour hollowed well
These dark golden yolks are very fresh I can tell
Pouring semi skimmed milk into the dish I use my electric food mixer and spin it around with a swish
A spoonful of caster sugar and a pinch of pepper and salt
My memories take me back and do a sudden somersault

As I stand holding the handle of my big round griddle pan 
I can almost here my Mam singing, if I close my eyes I can
You see this batter mixture was my Mams easy peasy recipe
Something that she often did that was yummy for our tea
She would be stood for absolutely ages dishing out drop scones for all of us in stages
There was seven hungry mouths to feed so my Mother was kept very busy indeed

Well my Mam is long gone like the breeze that blew away but I still make her yummy drop scones forever and a day
Years ago I bought a great griddle pan just like my Mother had 
It took me along time to find one but when I did I was very glad
So my children sit at the kitchen table and when they say to me
“Mam can we have Nana’s drop scones with strawberry jam and a cup of tea ?”
I put my big round griddle pan ontop of the cooker ring as I stand dishing out delicious drop scones and 
of course just like my Mother, I sing

i know what you mean 
about lcloseing your eyes
and sitll smell your moms cook
i still can smell my mom home 
made bread it was so good 
i ate it 24/7 and Jill you
would liked my moms
home made spaghetti 
and lasagne she had her own
pasta machine but her dinner rolls
where out this world they were 
to die for my mom to has been
gone long time
