Lactose Fantasies

how lovingly precious
so timelessly sweet 
the cooing and drinking  
of a suckling baby 
with milk in little hands

makes me want to 
reach out to grab
this dairy lactose belly hurting treat
so as to pour it all in
my morning coffee

but the baby is just on TV
and i don't drink coffee 
and milk just doesn't like me  

so now you know 
one of my lactose fantasies

I love this piece Verlecia, and not just because of the lactose intolerant perspective:) Amitiés
