Right There In the Moment

Alone with what I love, be it a sin, there is no better way I know to cheat! Warm salty butter drizzles down my chin. I’m right there in the moment when I eat! My corn’s now off the cob. The fragrance of bread straight from the oven my nostrils greet. I spread it with that butter which I love. I’m right there in the moment when I eat. I waste no morsel of it; next I try smooth creamy soup, which is a little sweet. It’s mellow yellow taste of squash. Oh my! I’m right there in the moment when I eat. Roast beef; leafy greens with dressing’s flavor! One thing remains to make my feast complete. Lindor’s chocolate on my tongue I savor. I’m right there in the moment when I eat! June 16, 2018 for the "In the Moment" Poetry Contest of Heidi Sands

And that's the best way to eat - being right there. I love food, to, and it's wonderful to savor every bite.
