Eat, Pray, Love

Eat:

She introduced her taste buds
to Italian spaghetti and red wine,
going to different restaurants
with the help of gondolas. She
has always wanted to taste
the delicacy.


Pray:

She found a way of feeding her soul,
after enjoying spaghetti. A spiritual teacher
introduced her to meditation, and
she began finding what she had lost
since childhood - happiness.


Love:

A man she met reminded her to love herself.
Pleasures and pains they shared tore off
the curtains that hid the true meaning 
of love to her.
