Gourmet Greetings

By Neil Fleischmann

The barn burned down, revealing a sad and smudged moon 
A chocolate Labrador reclined on a white chaise lounge chair

A sailboat made from a postcard floated on letter fragments
Old fashioned elegant cursive writing, myriad musical notes

A Kintsugi bowl sat perfectly imperfectly in its saved beauty
As a mushroom like tower in a field came into window view

An impossibly tall man juggled jigsaw puzzle pieces to the clouds
A woman’s hair nested birds, her eyes cried her soul into a rainbow

Yellow and brown leaves, or were they some kind of butterflies
Uncovered a splendiferous wish about the friend you are to me
