My Sweet Potato Pie
It's love when you enter a room and give me these butterflies.
No reason to try and hide keeping these emotions inside.
         You have me intoxicated from those sensations that you provide.
Woman you remind me of Sweet Potato...

 Grandma's spices, nuts,
Raisins cooked in every bite.

Sweet Potato Pie
Perfumed memories drift
across a sensuous universe
delivered sotto voce:  Smell
of morning mist, me into you,
you into black coffee
wearing your silk caftan
as through an open window
city smells melt up
from littered sidewalks,
sparerib bouquet flies out
from juke joints and you,
always you, like fudge brownies
hot from the oven until
one...

Premium Member Thanksgiving Sweet Potato Pie
Sweet potatoes boiled and mashed
Mixed with beaten eggs
Butter, salt and cinnamon
Whipped, spooned into pan
Pecans on top, bake
Fluffy smooth
Yum!

Sweet potato whipped with cream
Butter and sugar
Nutmeg blend with marshmallows
Baked in acorn squash

Sprinkled with walnuts
Filled with baked sweeeet potato

Sweet Potato Pie and Pumpkin Pie
sweet potato pie and pumpkin pie
no whipped cream....just familial purity
the sun crisp on the skin despite the similarly crisp chill
innocence endless like wind chimes with perfect pitch
everybody influential is alive, healthy, and well
no tombstone or 'wish you were here' teardrops
no football games in man caves...

All hail the royal 
Sweet potato in my red
Supermarket cart
Wrapped with foil and baked to
Its coarse, velvety goodness
