I remember the day as if it were yesterday,
The snowfall was heavy, we sat and watched it
We hadn’t spoken for god knows how long
Days would go by, me reading and she would knit

But that day...

Summer time was filled with laughter and fun
Childhood remembered playing in the sun
Swimming holes and watermelon served ice cold

In the morning I heard the tea pot singing,
With the amber liquid sizzling,
Saw spouts of vapor ejecting,
With a sweet aroma tickling.

While pouring my cup of steaming tea,
Adding some cream, a little sugar and stirring it
I...

or could it have been those sodas only around nine cans
Never just one bucket of extra crispy southern fried chicken

Banana soft fruit many uses
Cherry's are sweet watch out for its stone

Grapefruit similar to oranges but tarter
Honeydew melon lovely...

Splashed in lilac scent and robe of satin
She contemplates her choice of dresses
In her hand a string of pearls
In her trance, a cover girl-

A curling iron upon her tresses

With the aroma as it bakes in the oven, I rejoice.

Believe no word I say;
Just watch what I do.
No matter how I try
I can't hide it from you.

Ashamed of every bite,

by the moonlight i
take long sips of
its celestial white silk, and
follow the cookie path to
heaven, or

sit upon the donut of
chocolate with sprinkles, a
smile steeped with
jelly...

from my nose…to my...

each bite lingers, melts, remains
a kiss of silk, a...
