Momma, Nanny, and the dishes

His nanny often told him,
of the argument, 
long before she became,
the nanny.

They argued, often,
over the dishes.

Dating father, momma was,
coming over then was Lynn.

This continual argument,
over the dishes.

So tired, of the argument,
between the sisters,
over the dishes,
was Gramma, this day.

Just do the dishes Nance,
Grandma begged.

Grandma had a hard day,
cleaning rooms at the motel,
still too many mouths 
to feed this day.

Experience had taught Grandma,
speaking with Voyle, would not,
bring an end, to the argument.

For just this time of peace,
would the nanny just do the dishes,
to bring some rest,
to the family, this day?
