food

admire it, savor it 

in all its colors and textures

flavors, how it spreads across a plate.

the crunch of baby lettuce

the softness of ciabatta bread

the sweetness of fresh fig.

its lunch and the hummingbirds

are sipping at the feeder close-by,

the sun reflects of the white of the plate

and tablecloth is a clean black and 

pristine white.

its summer, we're outside

the sun is shining,birds are humming,

food is yummy and I'm 

nothing but happy.
