Food Poems

Calm is all nature as a resting wheel.
The kine are couched upon the dewy grass;
The horse alone, seen dimly as I pass,
Is cropping audibly his later meal:
...

Love is not all: it is not meat nor drink
Nor slumber nor a roof against the rain;
Nor yet a floating spar to men that sink
And rise and sink and rise and sink again;
...

Under the greenwood tree
Who loves to lie with me,
And turn his merry note
Unto the sweet bird's throat,
...

Chameleons feed on light and air:
Poets' food is love and fame:
If in this wide world of care
Poets could but find the same
...

Fame is a fickle food
Upon a shifting plate
Whose table once a
Guest but not
...

In the sea on the whale
The fishermen threw a pike,
The whale: I am harmless while
You are hurting me deadly deep,
...

Deep in our refrigerator,
there's a special place
...

DOWNHILL I came, hungry, and yet not starved,
Cold, yet had heat within me that was proof
Against the north wind; tired, yet so that rest
Had seemed the sweetest thing under a roof.
...

See the waters of the Yellow River leap down from Heaven, Roll away to the deep sea and never turn again! See at the mirror
in the High Hall Aged men bewailing white locks - In the morning, threads of silk, In the evening flakes of snow. Snatch the joys
of life as they come and use them to the full; Do not leave the silver cup idly glinting at the moon. The things that Heaven made
Man was meant to use; A thousand guilders scattered to the wind may come back again. Roast mutton and sliced beef will only
...

He gullibly ate the fake food
Thinking that its quality was good.

Labeled with a bogus hologram
...

So are you to my thoughts as food to life,
Or as sweet-seasoned showers are to the ground;
And for the peace of you I hold such strife
As 'twixt a miser and his wealth is found.
...

I did not follow,
Mind didn’t allow,
Hide face under pillow,
Some bitter pills to swallow,
...

A pound in the slot and out comes the chain,
It's Saturday supermarket shopping again,
And so I've obtained my large wire trolley,
And when shopping, you certainly need loads of lolly!
...

Every evening
When the sun is setting deep
When the cloud is turning from
Bizarre blue to orange red
...

The Health-Food Diner
No sprouted wheat and soya shoots
And Brussels in a cake,
...

Part One


As night fell and the light glittered in the great house, the servants stood at the massive door awaiting the coming of the guests; and upon their velvet garments shown golden buttons.
...

Now that we've done our best and worst, and parted,
I would fill my mind with thoughts that will not rend.
(O heart, I do not dare go empty-hearted)
I'll think of Love in books, Love without end;
...

Oh, a dainty plant is the Ivy green,
That creepeth o'er ruins old!
Of right choice food are his meals, I ween,
In his cell so lone and cold.
...

Either be a lamp
Sitting at a place,
Emitting light beams
For swarming moths' solace.
...

How doth the little busy Bee
Improve each shining Hour,
And gather Honey all the day
From every opening Flower!

Food
May 16, 2024

Being is to food
...

Give me food, food,
Food to satisfy my hunger,
Give me water, water,
Water to quench my thirst,
...

Food grain,
A handful of food grain,
Give you,
Give you to the hungry,
...

health is mindfulness on body-mind happenings in terms of discipline of food and drinks.
...

Lying on the balcony floor and looking at the door, a cute squirrel waits for food;
Food is placed for crows, birds and squirrels on the balcony aisle every day and they enjoy at noon;
They all take food silently sans fighting with each other and a beautiful sight to see ever;
By instinct they know when food will come there and readily wait for food there!
...

Pasta starting in the 1st century AD
Changing its design throughout time
A tradition everyone to later know
Everyone to experience
...

In the living world,
We, all are dependent on one to other
We are all food for one to other
We, all are eaters for one to other
...

Food food food
Life faces hunger,
See and feel
Tears of farmers.
...

I really love tasty dishes,
And I really love tasty food,
But not non-veg like chicken and fishes,
Yes, I'm a food lover!
...

Walking lost in the thoughts of tomorrow
I followed the aroma that rose from the kitchen,
My nose led me to the dining hall.
For a brief moment, I forgot I was swiftly moving
