Soul Food

Such are the tasty morsels

for the wonderland of the mind;

the most beautiful of words,

on the canvas of a page sprawled.

Alone, the letters detached

are mere dust in desert wind,

but when blended together

become a contrivance sweetened

Forever immortalized,

in glory and grandeur cloaked

Nourishment for the soul

in all seasons of its searching

Seared into fibers of being,

leaving their heartstring mark –

To draw upon the journey of time

and sustain our craving wont.
