boast a flavor all their own,
distinctly Iowan, distinctly unique,
Nothingness here is not outshone,
in nourishment or things antique.

The
gift
of
life
is
a
loaf
of
love
Wrapped
in
the
warmth
of
its
sharing
And
its
supreme
nourishment
is
the
crusted
peace
of
each
shared

Writing makes my blood boil,
hard emotions soften, I devour
each word. It is nourishment
for the soul. Like food for the
body, without the written
word I would starve.

Nourishment lies
Under my shirt,
Ready in an instant
Served up conveniently
In its own package.

I lie in my thoughts of rain
feeds my empty mind.

From God Needed Nourishment
From God needed enough nourishment;
Daily by Him much surgery underwent;
Quite a Guy;
On did rely;
From committing sin, He would prevent.

nothing compares to the beauty
of a Mother.
no painting captures her selfless
heart,not even words can describe
her infinite love.
she is delicate strength
that needs the nourishment
of praise.

Love is the best fruit,
the best nutrient.!
Hate is rotten fruit,
spoiled food...
He who chooses to hate
is not making the right choice
sits at the wrong table...!

My garden
It thirsts for water
It cries out for nourishment
My garden is me, you’re the water
I need you more than the sun
So never leave me
Here, alone

In the urgency of fear,
I transform,
in adversity, I realize who I am,
Normally, I don't even recognise myself...
So poetry is for me
nourishment and encouragement...
i discover it because so
is the living... !

with swift breath
as sun lights rays
rain down nourishment
seedlings stretching
reach to touch

Your beauty is as delicate as a precious flower
Petals stand strong, vibrant like your outer soul
The warmth and caring provides the nourishment
that the flower needs
And the love is what makes the flower bloom abundantly
