Cupboard
(a pantry)
let us hide in our sanctuary of dried fruits and spices
where did the cat go?
a hide and seek game is essential in between the biscuits and sugar
watch the ants form renaissance art in search for the honey
where did you put that homemade jam?
ink your childhood lovers name in the cracks so mother wont see
lick icing sugar off fingers when the tears are salty and splattered
drop the flour and create a snowstorm in the summer
make a rainbow in the spice rack
a city with the bowls and plates
let your imagination drip with the syrup
watch the ants
and hope that you wont be found.
The larder is a room of many wonders and little things are the greatest treasures. Very well done!
