A draft to fit Mary’s sketch prompt and Karin’s metaphor MTB at d’verse.
come hungry
look over menu
choose course;
catch waft of
fresh-baked aroma
from academic ovens;
instructor waits tables
invites scholars to
taste new pastry;
subject served warm
on gleaming plate
with notes on napkins;
admire textually
outlined layers
then dive in!
chew slowly to savor
and file in memory
to enjoy again later;
swallow with hot beverage
of cafe experience,
sweetened with
cream of delight.

Enjoyed this – savor later – we do that don’t we – ruminate on ideas. Well penned.
