Comfort Food

Many eat to live; some live to eat.

Access to food & eating is a treat.

For those who can afford it, it's good.

Some lucky ones have comfort food.

 

Like fuel for a vehicle, food is for the body.

Sharing food turns an enemy into a buddy!

Food is delicious & makes me ever so grateful,

I feel so fortunate & wealthy to eat till I'm full!

My comfort food is what I get to savour,

Whether I'm hungry or not, it adds flavour!

When prepared & served by a loved one,

It exudes warmth, care, comfort & is fun!


Sometimes, I need to have something sweet & hot-

And to gift my brain cells food for thought!

Sometimes, I crave to drink, munch, or chew,

And tempt my body & mind to obey & work anew!


My comfort food is what makes me feel great!

The food that enhances my well-being state!

The food that I have earned & feel truly my own.

My comfort food transports me to my comfort zone!


What about you? Does your comfort food bring comfort to you too?

  4. Anita, this is the best!! I love the line,
    "I feel so fortunate & wealthy to eat till I'm full!." This is taken for most of us but there are many going hungry, many more are dying or have died.

    1. Liking your four masters to go with the doctors. You like to travel, how about teaching? I taught college business law and entrepreneurship for 22 years before retirement. Also traveled a lot, cruised down the southern border of India making three all day stops.
      Thanks for reading my poem and for your nice comment. Sorry here for being so late returning.
