Food For the Soul

If only I could eat every food known Food of a people tell the culture of a people Soul food not just food for the soul Satisfying dish gives the heart a treat. An all time delicacy is food for the soul A dish I can eat any time any day A dish served as a welcoming treat A dish treated with the people's respect. This food is eaten with so much relish This food an appealing and apetizing dish This food for soul is a dish of nutrients Food for soul once eaten always hoocked on. This food for soul is simple but quite rich This food prepared differently by the people A palatable dish for one and for all people An acceptable food even for first timers. A nourishing meal of prepared tapioca A food known to the people as "African Salad" A food with accompanying complementary drink "Abacha Ncha" washed down with "Manya Ngwo".
