I'm sorry I didn't read this earlier, Chirag, but I love this :) Would love to read any more food poems you might have? Maybe we can publish them on the journal?
Hi, thank you for reaching out. I think I have something that you might like to read. Please let me know how I can share my poem. You can also publish it in the journal.
Since it's about food, I could not help but share this. It was during lockdown that everything changed. Please let me know how if you like this.
Mushroom Stew
Caressed by the sun
Witnessed by the moon
* gas on *
Throw in some mushrooms
peel few stories
scrape few scares
find the root
pull the stem
soak few beans
strain some scenes
mash in some mystery
mix up some magic
Season it with salt
water as required
Keep the flame low
let it simmer
don't let it stick to the bottom
make a slurry to thicken it up
garnish with fresh greens and coloured peppers
call people over, don't let them hover
share some stew, pour some words
comfort the blue, light the grey
Steal the light of the thunder
see the world - over and under
share the taste, fight the hunger.
