The Power Of A Meal

Sizzling roast straight out of the oven. 

The steam paints my cheeks with a warm, pink hue.

Nothing fancy for our meal. This is just a dinner for two.

Eating in peace is a bliss often ignored.

Silent conversation drips off every morsel. 

We eat until we’re full, and stay silent ‘til there’s nothing else to say.

I couldn’t imagine a better end to our day.
