The leathery hand grasping yours As you clutch the soft damp corn tortilla Layering it with thin slices of dimpled bound Spinets of dappled lit sunrise hued cheese The scent of pulled from the earth Outer wrapping of the leek growing long and sleek And the thought memory evoking spice of lemon basil Warmed and rolled in the manner of a fine cigar Bringing it to your lips the vapors play with your nostrils You sweat as the beads of essential oils tip your lips open With the gloss of whey coating the corners of the mouth You smile drinking in the heavens gift of the day to come 6-5-2014
