It is not merely cooking
this, is an adventure into culture, history, life
this, is a feast of love, of thanks, a dance of the harvest
a celebration of the earth and heavens
of stars and the beings orbiting and inhabiting it
food is but a medium, a language, a pathway to us
In the end, we seize the day
and capture a moment of magic
where we all pause to say:
LOVE is the sustenance
family and friends, the reason for being
and ‘neath the moon, is where we share
secrets and familiar stories
connected to the source of it all
-aye, a thanksgiving!
Your were here sir, ma’am, brother, sister
and through your eyes and journeys
we commune through a seance of senses
with loved ones, here,
and those like you, gone there,
we got a chance to dance
with spirits, angels, fairies, gods
and most of all, we got to simply be…human
the wow! wonder of ordinary days
entrenching themselves in us, opening
our consciousness to see and be extraordinary
to celebrate our ALIVENESS
We are here! We are alive! We are thankful;
all different flavours & colours of it
here, where we sauté sorrow; drink in dreams
Live in love; rest in peace, AMEN
