Mmmmm

Words exquisite fail the mind
mouth inhaling such a breath
of icy sweetness.

A single button of paradise
pleases the palate
till life seems
less harsh and bland.

After dinner,
between the perils of noon
and dusk,
revived by is fleeting chill,
one momentary pleasure
neither law nor God
forbids.

Small precious metal coffins
hold their magic
for the prefect time of whims.

Calories not a shrieking ghost
unto the conscience
when one's fount of happy
flows behind the lips
savoring a slice of ambrosia,
sunshine running down the throat.
