Slow peel foil lid crinkled, folded
Back, magisterial bliss:
Vital, viable, mindful fuel.
Vanilla beans dehisce
Plumes of purity; savored - full
Spoon - flavors coalescing,
Kissing taste buds: a kind of clarity:
The means: a palate’s blessing.
Treasured cup, the Spirit of Truth protects
So that all may relish.
Saints wait with great expectation
For you to taste, perish
Not, the purest dollop, preserved,
Served fresh, lite, slightly chilled.
Today’s fillip - your lips - My desire.
See the angels gasp, thrilled!
Faith, morals safeguarded: revealed
Truth! Sublime, varied depth,
Layer upon layer, new cream
Delights to take one’s breath.
To climb! A sudden shift, a broad
Shaft of sunlight illumines
Floating things; a bud ladened branch.
Plumb deep! Mere humans,
Unfurling perfumed rose petals,
Waif yet wafting lumens.
Skyward flight: sapient novices and
A numinous chime of blue wrens!
