Food Poetry Prompt

We Sat Down To Eat but Something Was Missing

What’s the magic ingredient we often forget?

Couldn’t put my finger on it Bad manners that would be Did I forget, did I omit? Checked through the recipe

Everything was as instructed Garlic, ginger and herbs Spices sautéed and inducted Why am I so perturbed?

Then veggies sizzled in the ghee Mixing to set the flavors free Aromas danced in ecstasy But something’s lacking we agree

We ate our dinner but somehow Wasn’t as it should be The missing factor was the Wow! Cooking with love’s the key

Backstory

A lesson learned over many decades!

When I prepare a meal because I have to, not because I want to, it’s never as satisfying as when I pour love into it. We then digest not only the food, but the loving energy.

That is the magic ingredient we often forget and applies not only to cooking but to any endeavor.

“It is not the magnitude of our actions, but the amount of love that is put into them that matters.” -Mother Teresa (Saint Teresa of Calcutta)
