Peas & Carrots

I believe in the glory of peas
and carrots
some small perfections round
diced tender sweet
coated in a sunny butter sauce
held in a tiny china bowl
eaten with a smoothly worn spoon
lifting lingering silvery notes
of the bossa
nova

thinking here the thin blue line of sky divides me
razors away slicing open the warming soul
peeking into a momentary eternity
playful eyes of a sun filled moon
and the most revealing flavors
of peas and
carrots
