Her Recipe

Melting Chocolate with cinnamon,
Dropping chili on them,
Some lemon drops,
Mixed with orange juice,
All together,
So hot ,
Intensely smelt,
In a deep pot,
Held with both hands,
Some drops on the lips,
Felt by a confused tongue,
Then flowing inside,
With a bitter sweet pleasure...
That’s what she did
When she found that
She is more complicated
Than she ever thought!

women are unique, they have mood and passion to sustain; not to mention our conscience and academic intelligence. *sigh* see how complicated we are ;) enjoyed the read so much.

This melting pot is a forget me not. It's like a pot of life, so many are sought. If it's to be so complicated, it needs to be read. In turn the outcome, make sure the words are wholly said. Nice one Omneya, and many thanks for reading my humble words :)
