A Poets Lunch

Steaming hot pasta, covered 
        with aromatic dreams.
        Thoughts of loving, fellow poets,
        who comment and you, they do read!


        Sprinkled daily, with fragrant spices of 
        both simplicity and toasted love.
        They are loving creations of God, high 
        above.


        They don’t read you, because they must 
        have a list of long replies back.
        Their hearts are too ful, and they have 
        no poetic lack!


        To these, raise a crystal goblet of sparkling, 
        fresh, warm, apple cider.
        Then, relax in humble gratitude on your 
        deck’s soft, welcoming, sunkist glider!
