Help! There’s a dragon in my stew!

Help! There’s a dragon in my stew!

A Poem by Red Brick Keshner

A dragon basks in my stew, scales glinting with heat
Steam curls, weaving tales of daring quests
Potatoes anchor islands, thickening the plot
Carrots float like tiny boats on a spicy sea
Pepper flames flicker, igniting bold flavours
Onions create layers of intrigue
Garlic breathes magic
Stew simmers bold.

Spoon stirs, dragon flares
Bubbles pop with mystery
Savoury secrets blend-
Courage takes a bite.

Spoon dips,
Bowl lifts.

Savour.

Interesting. A lot of fun.
Sounds good to me. I want a bite,
or a slurp.

How creative this was with great imagery. Although I’d be a bit suspect if a dragon was in my stew! I’m glad the stew was good. I found much symbolism and an unwritten theme in this piece. Thank you for sharing.
