  • Going Steady

    Chicken broth and me: we’re going steady.

    We’re mulling over a long-term relationship.

    One of us has commitment-phobia.

    Call it a honeymoon, but I can’t go a day without

    chicken broth’s kisses.

    (Butter is in cold storage. She will forever be my first love.
    But I had to abandon butter.)

    Garlic and paprika go on double-dates with us.

    Basil brags about preempting paprika.

    Lemon and dill sometimes feel left out.

    Curry keeps begging for a place at the table.

    Sage wisely stays silent.

    I have no thyme to add to our romance.
