NothingTastes Like You


 

Nothing Tastes Like You


Sweet, like homemade strawberry wine

The taste of you lingers

Like chocolate on fingers

Like jelly and jam

And all that I am

Stays hungry for you.


Salty and savory

Like  steak in brown gravy

Like sandwiches making

With lettuce and bacon

Burgers and fries that widen the eyes

Just looking at you makes me drool.


Caramel sweets

And dark truffle treats

Godiva and Lindt

My money all spent

In my long ago days

But I've changed my ways.


I save myself, indulge myself

On the feast of your love and

The delectable true

Most flavors I know and really love so

But there's no taste to me

As delicious as you.

  2. I swear up and down I posted a comment here last night. Now I’ve been outmatched by an “Anonymous” rival! Lol!

    It was something like “I’m wiping my lips as I’m reading” or something like that. It’s a lusciously indulging written poem. I won’t be forgetting this one! I love it! Now I have a craving for the lettuce and the bacon. And the bacon grease. 🥬 🥓
