Sense Sonnet - Pumper

A Man and his Can

Fredric Baur dreamed up the can
That contained the Pringle chips brand.
He told his children that his plan
Was cremation and then be canned,
When his chips were at last cashed in,
Which happened at age 89.
Honoring their paternal kin,
The kids went shopping by design,
On their way to Dad's funeral.
A can of Pringles they did buy.
The flavor was original.
His fitting way to say goodbye.

While the kids munched and mourned Dad late,
Canned Dad was buried in aisle 8.
