Write a poem
about food. This could be a poem about a particular food, or about your
relationship to food in general. Or it could simply be a poem relating an
incident that involves food.

Lilikoi Butter
Oh Lilikoi
How your name
tantalizes my
tongue
Your scent
wakes me
to the lush world
outside my lanai
Tastebuds
trigger
saliva glands
at mere mention
of you
But to find you
golden, encased
in glass jars!
The creamy
spread
of you,
turned
into butter
glazing
my morning toast
next to my glass
of lilikoi juice
Truly, I am
in paradise
where a fruit’s
passion
transforms
into pleasure
