Lunch



Hot bowl of curry
I lick the fingers;
And taste you

-------------------------

Layers on layers
I peel the onion;
Nothing but tears

-------------------------


Smell of food in air
Both run to the garbage bin;
The dog wins





For Haiku Heights ‘ lunch’

    I find those elaborate cooking of traditional dishes quite tearful!! Why do meals have to be so complicated?? ;)

      Same here Nanka but my mom has a strong reasoning behind it "Tears enhance the taste of any dish" :)

    I liked all three. Yummy! I especially enjoyed the first with finger licking. These brought me right into the kitchen.

    These are some powerful haikus! Thanks for sharing, especially the first piece -- which led me to this.
