Pasta

A steaming pot of boiling water
Resting lazily upon the stove
Just warming, getting hotter, hotter--
Comfort food self-made within the home.

The tired veggie peels can rest now
After giving life's accomplished meats.
Ingredients all lie not in sorrow,
Proudly having made just such a treat.

Instead they all have joyous finished
Lives that purposedly have sold their wares.
And now the cook will dine and finish
Wondrous meal with friends in ring of chairs.
