Haiku #325

We’re getting to taste Summer’s relentless heat, and Some habaneros

Fulfilled

I really don’t mind Taking my time Even on a weeknight To get the sauce right As I settle in to unwind With or without  A glass of wine Deboning the thighs Cooking them crispy On one side It truly satisfies

Icebox

Once again I find myself standing Looking in to admire Her inner beauty Illuminating everything That’s classically hidden Behind a sturdy exterior Made of steel I begin to reflect On polished effects Side-by-side, sinking Counter-depth As temperatures rise She remains cool As a cucumber inside Protecting my food   …and then there’s mine ❤️ Full

Smothering differences #Haiku

After six short steps We come together, blending Rich diversity

Udon, and then some

I hear dragon drums Banging its fiery flavors Across waiting tongues Joyous heartbeats, rose and sung Deliciously devouring

Puff Puff – #Food #Haiku

It’s better homemade Easter seemed like a good day To make these beignets

Put a spoon in it

Life’s all about give and take The weekend got in the way I pulled an emergency break Allowed dirty dishes to stay Piled in muck for 1 or 2 days Till no forks remained in tray It didn’t bring about doomsday In fact, I served coconut cake A spoon simply stood in its place  

🍅 tomāto, tomăto, tomatoes – #Tanka

We are all vibrant A myriad of colors Eradicating Harmful free radicals found In humanities garden

Smoked Shrimp 🦐 🍤

We’re all just shrimps Swimming from the abyss Getting tossed into mix After heads & tails are pinched Then discarded & ditched Rush through life too quick Find your fingers sorely pricked It’s a risk worth a few sticks Eating rich with a flavor kick Infusing your favorite dish Simmer until you know it’s done

Festive Chin Chin

Irresistible Semi-sweet, fried crunchy treats A taste of Christmas Served with a cuppa something Beside family and friends  

What’s cooking ~ #Haiku

Broiled tilapia With Thai coconut curry Sauce hitting the spot

Sunday mornings ~ #Haiku

The sweet and salty Taste of Sunday mornings is Worth the week-long wait

Game Day

A familiar score Belts The Star-Spangled Banner Jets soar above ~ A coin toss kicks off Bets with a fifty-fifty Popular wager ~ It’s the food and drinks Commercials and half-time shows Pools that I adore ~ Win or lose we choose To feed greedy appetites With our traditions ~Haiku string poem

Pumpkin Everything

Tis the season for sugar and spice Sweetening everything the way I like It goes well beyond traditional pie Flavoring coffee, cookies and popcorn? Now that’s something I’ve gotta try

Salty Sweet

Hot off the griddle Sweetness drizzled Dripping with gold Vita-C served cold Two is not enough Salt pile, center-cut

Gratitude

I’m thankful for each breath that averts death With good health dealt by a spiritual wealth A warm and cozy bed, the roof over my head The Sandman’s conveyances off to dreamland Food that feeds a mouth the words to speak Loud music played easing all troubles away A safe hand to hold as all

Day 311: 3 Words
