The Dish (for N o o d l e h e a d)

This poem is dedicated to my friend and fellow poet, N o o d l e h e a d. Bon appetit!

In the Italian masterpiece,

Have you ever given thought

To the N o o d l e?

Not just any, but the

one at the very epicenter,

the N o o d l e h e a d!

She who writes her deepest

emotions upon the

delicate dough,

weaving them invisibly

into the recipe

for you to taste.

She serves a language lasagna,

Verses baked to perfection,

Spicy verbs with verisimilitude,

With a palette for prepositions.

And we, the customers and critics,

Eagerly devour that which was concocted in the kitchen...

However, we may still

miss the N o o d l e h e a d,

for she prefers to remain

anonymous,

behind the doors

of the dish,

smiling.

You know sometimes I am actually am at a loss for words *scratching my head* but what a scrumptious write. I mean that as much literal as metaphorically and NH must be feeling extra good about herself right now that everybody's appetite has upped. This is so tasty :).

[Eric Pudalov]

Aww...thank you Shirlena!! Yes, she told me she liked it very much! I'm happy to do a tribute to a fellow WC poet.

An odd way to meet your works. Interesting. You've conveyed a great deal about our friend in the way most can't. Haha I like your writing my friend

(Andddd to the dear Noodle who pointed me here. Awwwww :3 friendship)

[Eric Pudalov]

Hooray for friendship!! Go figure...I haven't been friends with Noodle for that long, but this just somehow seemed to fit. I love doing tribute poems.

Thank you Asylum! She definitely is. I hope to make friends with all the rest of you as well, seeing as I'm relatively new here.

Shucks, Eric, you're too sweet!

You have penned a lovely tribute, Eric!...She's my sweet Noodle! ...
However, I see her as something more classic or English, is there such a pasta dish? lol

Nicely done!~xoxo~:D

[Eric Pudalov]

Oh, I don't know for sure - I guess it was the Noodle name that inspired it, but I'm sure there's something like that!

[Robbie~xoxo~]

It's a treat to read, nevertheless! lol :)
