Ode To Food
A poem
Food, oh food, what a wonderful sight
Deep emotions inside me, you truly ignite.
There is nothing in this world I would rather be doing
Than smelling steak, biting into it then chewing.
You are more than just a smell, a taste or a bite
You are sheer happiness and pure delight.
Eating alone or with a group
Sharing bread or slurping soup
Frying eggs or toasting bread
Laying fruits neatly on a spread
Oh, food, you are more than a human need
You are a sacred, eternal bond, indeed.
The golden crust of an apple pie, so warm
A chicken burrito filled in the perfect form
From street carts to fine dining
You unite us all and keep us smiling.
Oh, beloved food, both feast and fare,
A gift to Earth, beyond compare.
You bless our plates with colours bright,
You solve our problems, making everything all right.
Each crumb tells a story, each bite sings a song,
Each meal takes us to where we belong.
