A strange boy was eating breakfast one morning at the long table.
"A boy like that could eat you out of house and home."
These boys would eat their meals at the homes of the local Jews.
Because I remember how a long time ago, boys ate that stuff.
Both boys slack on the job but eat the man's food.
In the tiny school cafeteria, lunch hours have been changed so all the boys can eat together, for added community.
So the boy sat down, and ate some food which she gave him in a bowl.
At the sound of her voice the boy got up and ate the food she gave him.
She is also eager to see the boys sitting, eating and walking on their own.
The boy had eaten nothing else that day, but it was a good beginning on solid food.
