Isabella the Waitress!

No let up to the roles she plays!

Isabella’s haunting gaze

Draws attention to her tray

What is she offering today?

 

As a good waitress, she provides

A choice of drinks for thirsty eyes;

Is there hot cocoa? Coffee? tea?

I hesitate – what will it be?

 

And what will brother Thomas choose?

Will yellow, pink or green enthuse?

Her presentation skills are key;

The  'cup that cheers' is right for me!

 

Peppa Pig observes the scene;

No apron for this serving queen

Who, wrapped-up warm, with cheeky smile,

Can every customer beguile!
