MENU OF THE DAY

Vegetable Soup
Homemade Bread
Peach Pie
Milk


From preparation to consumption,
My favorite meal.

Careful peeling, slicing, dicing;
Combative kneading, whacking, punching;
Frustrations banished.
Problems confronted.
Sorrows alleviated.

Blended aroma...
Simmering soup,
Crusty bread,
Peaches bubbling
Between carefully pieced together crusts.

All finally served with icy milk.

Given the opportunity of a last meal request,
Remind me to order this.
