Love Fruits, Passion's Meals On Which I Once Sup
Love Fruits, Passion's Meals On Which I Once Sup
When I ponder my life, its fleeing years-
Youth with its blessings and its cold dark fears;
Wandering through world and paths not taken
Truth of the sorrows and those forsaken;
Faint gaspings of romantic interludes;
Treasures lost, unforgiving attitudes;
Celebrating those small victories gained,
Savoring what true love in life remained.
Whispers searching soul...

Salmon Bites
Like a Grizzly bear looking intently
from the rivers rocky crest
I hunger for the first bite
of succulent Alaska salmon
Fresh caught in the mornings first glow

Give Him Those Extra Meals Please
Marmoset directs traffic better than monkeys or sloths.
He stands in the highway and walks his feet off.
We have hired other species. but they do not hold a candle.
To Marmoset who can do it at every single damned angle.
He is demanding a raise, sixteen more meals a week.
For he has plenty of mouths to feed, and...

Home Cooked Meals
Mommy and I have to eat home cooked meals
At the restaurant
Because mommy is determined to keep up this
Fam’ly front.
No one can know we live in misery.
Though we wear Oleg Cassini and
Carry a Coach purse
We live in love’s poverty.
I think I’m getting an ulcer.
But, she eats slow
And I clean my plate
Don’t want to get...

Why I Volunteer At Meals On Wheels
Why I Volunteer at Meals on Wheels
Why I volunteer at Meals on Wheels,
I do it to help people receive meals.
I had to get a photo id
This is for the people’s safety
At first I thought of it as just something to do
After that first day I realized that wasn’t true
I deliver a...

A Meals On Wheels Volunteer
A Meals on Wheels Volunteer
We give our time and use our wheels
When we deliver hot and cold meals
Bringing our elderly and disabled a meal to eat
We go to homes on many a street
We do this to show we care
It’s a good feeling to volunteer

My Mother's Stove
Dedicated to My Moma
My favorite appliance is not my own
or even located inside of my home.
No matter where on this earth I rove,
I gladly returned to my Mother’s stove.
My family lived all over the world
so her stove's colors are memory swirl,
but they all had one trait in common -
ensuring nutrition was never a problem.
My Mother’s...

Summer Meals
Summertime meals are delicious
sandwiches with sliced tomatoes
green beans cooked with new potatoes
Homegrown, healthy and nutritious
garden vegetables and fruits
a mixture of tubers and roots
Meals are often expeditious
hotdogs and burgers on the grill
homemade ice cream an added thrill
Barbecues can be ambitious
preparation of sauce and meat
could be hours until time to eat
Summer desserts are capricious
peach cobblers or watermelons
freshly...

As My Daily Meals Revolve
I like a healthy breakfast.
Green smoothie or toast?
Any doubt?
I choose where to eat my lunch.
Which do I like most?
In or out?
I fix my hubby dinner.
Casserole or roast?
Which to tout?

Between Meals
When I am still full from the meals I eat
Why is it that I still crave something sweet
Between meals the desire to snack
Is something I fight but lose the attack
What harm in a fun size candy bar
And finishing off the jellybeans in the jar
A scoop of ice cream or two
A root beer float ever so...

Mid Afternoon Meals
Whiskers sweep around her
sweet little wrinkled lips
weathered by age.
His hair cascading
silver grey curls around
his ripped flannel shirt
and balding top.
Everyday he orders
the same.
Country ham steak,
eggs sunny, with a side
salad. Ranch dressing.
The consistency captivates
attention, and while
he sits back and settles on
the regular.
Her plump little
breakfast sausage fingers
scan the menu for
something new.
Sometimes she writes
in...
