A slice of life

Small little stove, 

heated with a lighted candle, 

a delectable slice of sweetness

 cooked with little hands, 

amidst the dramatic play of characters,

the taste of it still lingers on.

Nothing tasted

as sweet as those pancakes,

 except love.

.

Bitter sour experiences 

tasted like the black powder

that exploded 

on the tip of the tongue.

.

Tantalizing taste 

of balanced ingredients 

in a bowl of happiness 

added a creamy texture to life.
