Tap, and Unwrap
That’s how it goes
and a scent of orange
wafts up my nose
Scent – then a taste
of orange from oil
captured in chocolate segments
held in the foil
Dark light and White
Mixes of chocolate and zest
Melt in the mouth zing
A taste that’s the best
Food…..or should I say Foooood!
I could be some time with this particular part of the challenge !(sic)
I mean where to begin – I’m a bit of a foodie. I enjoy my food – not just the meats but the pasta and vegetables as well. Christmas time sees a smorgasbord of delights, from Spiced Ham to cheesy pasta bakes – not forgetting of course Christmas pudding and Battenburg Cake
My Nephews are partial to a bit of Jelly and custard at Christmas, and for the adults aside from the Christmas pud, there’s usually the Content for a trifle on the go. But this year they helped make something really special – a tray of gingerbread men…now I don’t know if any of them escaped the Christmas table but one or two of them definitely did a disappearing act…

It’s funny – how
night after night
fresh tea leaves bring flavour
under a little bit of help from
some boiling water
enjoy it with milk and sugar – or perhaps some lemon?
A poem from 2015….the first post of 2016
Happy new year, WordPressers!
The chocolate fell
at speed
into the vortex
of swirling
bubbling milk
Steam from
Frothy
Velvety Milk
rose delightfully
transporting
Orange Chocolate
scents
into the air
Rising like
bubbles
of Mississippi
Mud
Happy Hippopotamuses
Mused
Perfect end of the day
before hitting
Purple Pillows and
dreamspace
Infuse
