FROM THE HUSBAND'S EYE

FROM THE HUSBAND'S EYE In the kitchen, a dance of flavors play, When your "food" cooks up a surprise today. Living the good life, in every bite found, Deciding the order, to let joy abound.4 In the kitchen is where unsavoury appetite reside. His wife, a dish so tasty, he can't help but decide, Is she a meal to savor before the main course? Or perhaps a dessert, and a necessary dose?8 To him, she's a banquet, a feast for the eyes, Each day a new dish, a delicious surprise. Does he devour her body while digesting the day? Or save her as a treat, to enjoy right away?¹² In the husband's eye, his wife is the ultimate fare, A meal so divine, far beyond compare. So he ponders & muses, with stomach a-grumble, How best to enjoy her, this culinary ensemble.¹6 He relishes these moments, cherished & sweet, Where his "food" prepares his food in a joyous feat. That's when he knows he's living a good life, And not living by the edge of the knife.²° For men, the meal we seek lies by our side. Now it is up to us to meticulously decide,²² If we are gonna "eat" before we eat, Or "eat" after eating on our seat, Or "eat" while eating even from the offset.²5 From breakfast to dinner, his appetite roams, For his wife is a delicacy, making his heart her home. With love as the spice & laughter as the flavor, He knows for sure, he'll savor her forever.²? ~~~~~ VICK MANUEL POETRY {VMP} FORM: Rhymes Copyright ©?21st April, 2024.
