Conjured from an essay on this wordpress blog of August 8, 2018
A Warm Evening Feast
To extend the beauty of the afternoon
I went to dear friend Tina’s blog and left a
border-line love-note,
I felt the hunger of the day and the sun
Lowering to go to the potato patch
On the other side of the house,
There I dug up two anemic plants
Which yielded seven or eight small spuds.
I took them into the kitchen and prepared a small feast.
A one-pan feast.
A few tablespoons of olive oil,
(Because I was really low on safflower oil)
It was necessary to supplement four of the small potatoes
With a handful of Thompson raisins,
Three tiny tomatoes that were a product of a
Failed straw-bale effort,
A few cups of frozen organic broccoli, and
An organic vegan Italian sausage sliced and diced,
Pink sea salt and pepper to taste.
A feast absolutely.
