A Rye Moment

As much fun making the sandwich as eating it?

A rye moment

 

Give me rye bread, lettuce, cucumber and onion.

 Nutrients fortify; I can’t wait to munch on lunch.

Give me pastrami, spicy horseradish and cheddar.

Piled and layered ingredients in perfect union

Sandwich treat, I treasure each bite, each crunch.

Outer bread slices, the perfect fresh grain sweater.

Hold my sandwich together, just perfect luncheon.

I’ve contrived a delicious creation at my work bench.

Oh I cannot forget beautiful strips of Green pepper.

May I allow myself this delicious special occasion?

-Monster sandwich forthcoming, nutritional bunch.

Out my window pane gazing, ‘Can it get any better?

Blessed with choices; no hunger here.  Rich option.

It’s morning at ten so this is a scrunch to brunch.

-A culinary delight, Delectable dining, to the letter.

i am on a diet and it is late in the day for me and your poem just made me so hungry that I think I will forgo the diet for now. Can I say the poem was delicious? I really enjoyed this, it was fun to read and the excitement you felt with your sandwich was easily felt and very contagious.

willweb,
If you eat fresh veggies you can't go wrong, Rye bread is healthy too. I wish you all the best with your health and life. Thanks for a great review.

"Rye Moment" lol, that's hilarious
Sounds yummy, I will be right over.
I love the way this celebrates life. Joy in the moment, gratitude for sustenance.

softlyfall,
Oh your above phrase just reminded me what so much of life is about; 'joy in the moment.' I think that our writing is inspired from those little jewels of time. Our lives can be the inspiration for so much. Thanks so much for your kind words.
Bless you!

You make us hungry with this creative poem that shows your talent as well as you culinary ways. If you open a restaurant, I'm pretty sure it will be healthy and delicious. I like naturally grown things as you do.
Happy Autumn. I'm pretty sure it is gorgeous in Oregon.

Sami,
My husband were in eastern Oregon for awhile and dry as a bone is the word. Now back home here in the Pacific Northwest not quite as dry and have had a little rain. Have started a second planting of sugar snap peas and they are doing pretty good. Green beans putting out new grown and flowers after last beans picked. Rasberries acting done. Cucumbers ready to pick as leaves are winding down. I really enjoyed your poem on forgiveness just so you know. thanks for the visit.
Bless ya!

Kathy, this is really clever-but beyond clever it is good. It is the essence to take an everyday happening and construct with it a poem both interesting and eloquent. There is talent in your bones. Welcome.

Amber Stone,
We all like a special occasion once in a while. It's nice when it is just a time that stands out just because. This was a day where the sandwich was wrapped up and taken to a coffee place where I bought a really phoufy drink and pondered life at a table by a window all by myself. It was special!
Thanks and bless you much!
