Impromptu

three more
three more ingredients 
to add to my soup

my wife
always said
three

father
son and
holy ghost

but that
was for
marinara

today
it's cold
and so a bowl

of hot 
soup
will do

in 
my stack
of stock

i have
beans peppers lentels onion garlic to start with
but then tomatoes basil oregano bay leaves but

don't leave
out the
butter
