Certain meals linger in my mind, most of them simple, a few elaborate, wedding dinners definitely! In each case, it’s the event, the people I’m with, a cousin, new friends, old friends, that make the meal, that particular moment, special. Even the smell of the food lingers, with the taste, and surroundings. I’m sure this happens for everyone …
MEMORABLE
asparagus
dripping butter
onto hot toast
a double cheese pizza
eaten alone
missing him
cheeseburger
and chocolate milkshake
when I landed
Halifax to Vancouver
rejoicing at being
home again
meals that linger
in memory
for the flavours
and the people
Photos are all I have about celebrated meals, sort of better than nothing, not as rich as poems. Merci!
This was agony!!! I started weight watchers last week!! ( But a good poem tho’!)
