day 126

By Kat Myrman 
Soup

I would, if I could, 
eat soup everyday
especially now when uncertainty
has my stomach twisted, tied in knots
it’s comfort food, yes soup will do, 
it’s my go to, when I am blue, 
a simple broth, potatoes, 
beans, rice or noodles, 
something green, spinach, kale
seasoned well, hot steaming, 
slurpilicious, can you tell, that soup 
will do when I’m distressed,  
better than my first instinct, 
clearly under great duress,  
to grab for something salty, sweet, 
too much of a good thing until 
I’m stuffed, uncomfortable, just ill
I should have had some soup instead
but worry makes me lose my head
and so I cook a lot these days, 
soup, of course, for times like these 

much love, peace, and glimmers to you.
