April 11 - Today's Word is "Soup"

Today's Word is "Soup"

The liquidy cuisine starts
with boiling water
and/or broth brewed by
sucking the goodness from bones
or fresh-picked veggies.
Then choices are made of what
to add, so many good foods
can carry its theme.
That's where the magic happens.

Mostly served hot,
sometimes cold.
one simmers on my stove
right now, sending a rich
aroma wafting through my home.
Later I'll ladle
it into an earthenware bowl
and serve me and whoever might happen by.
Today I made one of my favorites,
savory, spicy, garden-vegetable.
                   Yum~
