My Love Gave Me Cookies

and they held me while we were far apart,
because I ate them like a sailor fighting scurvy
with his last apple: today, one. tomorrow, one.
all the way until the last, one, then one, then one.

because that was all there was of me,
to last all the time: today, one. tomorrow, one.
all the way until the last, one, then one, then one.
days, cookies, me, like a sailor: one, one, one.

I like this very much... hoarding a treat to prolong remembered contact as long as possible... an antidote to that disease of loneliness. *S* Beautiful work! *S*

I had to come back for another nibble of this sweet verse (and yes... I did have to use that awful pun *G*)

Watch out Kazm. The Chocolate Monster is in the house. If you have a Chocolate cookie may I have a nibble since I have savored a bite of your sweet poetry.
See Ya Bon-Bon aka The Chocolate Monster.
