Roasted

Jewel Food Stores - Illinois



 Looking at that roast in the cart
 I savor its taste even now.
 Yet never thinking that for my part
 When I will cook it...or even how.


 But I take it to the checkout lane
 With all the other items that day.
 Finally having to leave it...to looks of disdain
 I didn't bring enough cash with me...all to my dismay.

I was gone and did not read any poetry the past weekend. So I am trying to get some read today. I am pleased that yours is among what I have read today and I have enjoyed reading it. I hope you have a wonderful week filled with inspiration Daniel. The best to you in the contest always. Love, Carol
