savor me
relish my cadence
let the effectiveness
flavor your day

verse
that is seasoned
with the salty ocean breeze
spiced
with lascivious slices of life

devour me
taste my lyrical lines
let the tang
be the inflection

rhyme
that is a blend
of sweetness & sour
a succulent morsel
puckering one’s cheeks

waiting for a pause
to quench
the thirst
a burst of colorful
metaphors
impressions
and feelings

revealing
that doused
with cream
whipped or not

you too
can…………….. eat a poem
