Tasty dish Okra and rice
with some salted fish,
Steamed down with coconut milk
onions, chives, and thyme,
it's a sight to see
but the taste!
Yum!...

A baked potato smothered
In veggie chili
Some extra sharp cheddar cheese
Throw peppers and chives
On the top, sour cream
Steaming hot
Joy!...

A succulent prime-rib roast

thickly sliced, blood rare,

a baked potato topped with

sour-cream, chopped chives

and melted butter,
 
a gourmet

feast!

My  blue terraced pot is alive this year,
Growing basil, chives, oregano and sage.
It sits on my patio in the filtered sun,
Ready for creative culinary inspiration......
              Maybe after I finish this glass of wine....

The specialty chef he sure kindles knives.
He flips all the shrimp and shreds the chives.
The blaze from the heat
cuts all from their seats.
The customers split as he s-pares their lives.

tiny hams of garlic
towering crowns of chives
bursting busty rose tomatoes
clutching lettuce clusters
bulbous purple eggplants
hiding in green velvet 
from the burning touch of sun
another cold wet morning
but hope has turned to promise
and the planting has begun...

When you bake these tubers unearthed from the ground,
many ways to stuff them can be found.
Onions, peppers, chives, and mushrooms can please.
How about cheddar, Monterey jack, or blue cheese?
Fill them with chili, bacon bits, or sour cream.
Butter with salt and pepper is good, it would seem.
There are other ingredients.  Anyone can dream.
One of the most versatile foods is the potato.
Dress it up.  Let your imagination flow....

Cooking with garlic and oil
Chopping peppers and chives
Crinkling aluminum foil
Running water over dirtied knives

Cutting boards strawberry stained
Slicing apples and poaching pears
Steamy facials from pasta drained
Sizzling pops like lightning flares

Piping a French buttercream rosette
Cracking eggs with no loose shell
Waiting for lime jello to set
But nothing beats the most delicious smell

The scent of vanilla...

The special today,
is Tom's Stew,
more than enough,
for all of you.
Homemade bread,
with garlic, and chives,
real butter without calories,
dripping from the sides.
Strawberry Shortcake,
heaping with cream,
fresh from scratch,
right out of a dream.
Eat all you want,
get happy, and stuffed,
take some with you,
he insist you have enough.
Open all night,
his lights always on,
place your orders,
before it is all gone....
