Soup! Enjoy!

The playground near my mom's has a great play-structure
It has a tower and slides, a steering wheel and ladders.
But underneath, they built a little window.
Flash uses it as a take-out window.

Yesterday as I sat on the nearby bench he yelled
"Mommy! Your soup is ready!"

Why is it always soup?

I went over, and retrieved my leaf-with-woodchips concoction
and asked what today's soup was.
"Its green chocolate soup. Here is your four dollars "

Why does he always say four dollars? And why does he pay me?

"Enjoy! Take care!"
And I went back to my bench to play-eat,
under the watchful eye of my young chef,
who had climbed up to the steering wheel/deck area.
