Stick 141 - Soul Food


The Spark under the Bark

It was when she met my eyes
that I saw the ravenous quest for meaning

It was when she spoke low and slow
that I heard the appetite for intelligent debate filled evenings

It was when she ate with hungry intent
that I felt the need to abandon the frienship famine

It was when she smiled with soft lips tilting upwards
that I knew for certain she shared a peckish sense of humour

It was when she said goodbye and ended the night with warmth of heart
that I understood the craving-hunger that churns the hunkering-yearning

for the good delivered only by female soul food
