crispiness of the aroma
churlishness of butter, hidden flavours
of its own fragrance
out of the oven
into my mouth
concealing my pleasure
sinking into the soft cushions of the nibbled layers
the unsuspected tongue
relishing it
with a fervent cup of
hot tea
on a post rainy day
sunny, half dry and half wet
translucent doors of the bakery
the beam of the sun
enhancing the memoirs of the baked dishes
as the aroma reaches the nose
and the body
an autumn morning
page 3 rumors of affairs
bites and bites of bites
Is wedlock the true route to all conjugal bliss,
Nuptial excitement that starts with a kiss?
Or is it the halter after the altar,
That threatens to fetter and make life not better?
The fondling and cuddling and nights of long snuggling,
Changed overnight to ones, of alcohol guzzling.
A churlishness now in the partner is found,
From a beloved spouse to an obnoxious bloodhound.
She a fabulous cook,now sports a grumpy old look;
He's turned from intimacy to reading a book.
Love and coquetry has come to an ebb,
Finding affections in a new kind of web.
Monogamy turns to Polygamy slowly,
And perhaps doing things even more lowly?
From celibacy to intimacy and words we can't shout,
Now their connubial contact lies down and out.
They denounce and renounce and have their say,
To begin a life in a new kind of way.
Leaving it all to their legal belief,
Divorce now brings in,some kind of relief.
But where it will lead is anybodys guess,
For the ball is now rolling and lifes in a mess.
