When My Heart Was Content

I remember when she
would cook us brown rice,
extremely delicious and nice,
because it was my honeys
hands that had cooked the rice...
And then on the electric range
she would toast some nori
and I'd open a can of albacore
to mix with the rice,
so we could wrap it all
inside the nori,
extremely delicious and nice.
And thats how it went,
when my heart
was content.

Nice to have a
full belly and a
heart content.

I like this. Short & simple. I am however, nursing a steam burn from a pan of brown rice. Not my favorite food right now...

I like this too, but I was hungry when I read it and just wished I had some!  I like your writing style.

I'm sorry about your rice cooking honey James. It's good to be content. Nice write.

Very nice. Contentment, food and a honey make a great combination.  Love, Joyce
