Mystery Flavor (C) 3/31/2011 Poem by Zahir Kijani

Coffee with no sugar but a hint of cream
But even without artificial extracts, still sweeter than most,
Body constructed as that of a Peruvian queen
Smile brighter than the product of chewin Miswak twigs
Eyes more beautiful than the combination of the seven world wonders
Without any knowledge of her favorite activities it seems we’ve met long ago
Or maybe a premonition into the future that holds dear and strong,
As chocolate as my favorite candy bar, Reeses
But I’ve never known if there was a peanut buttery center
Or a refreshing minty shell,
Either way her beauty has trapped me in a never ending vortex,
Of questions wondering will I ever know what flavor she is inside.
