Poetry Thursday

There was no prompt this week at Poetry Thursday and we were free to do our own thing. I looked back through past prompts and chose "food" because I've been doing lots of cooking and baking the last few days.

Glossy, ebony semi-sweet
Gilds peppermint creams,
Peanut butter balls,
Salty pretzel knots.
Deep, rich comfort,

Sweet, soothing balm
