I enjoy cooking, but never made soup, from scratch, until now.

After making my pot of soup, I sat down to write this poem.

Cooking inspiration found

–

When cooking, you are my muse

It is the choices of food that you choose.

That inspires my preparation of stews,

Breads, salads and more.

–

To your house I was invited to dine

on not quite a seven course meal and wine.

Soup and salad, to end, all was divine.

Toast to you I pour.

–

Now, my turn, you I invite, taste delight.

Not fancy, plain simple fare served tonight

I never make soups, but yours are just right

Soups, too much labor.

–

You lead, I follow.  Challenge not I meet.

Soup, easy to cook, easy to eat.  Sweet!

Use this, use that, what ever is left.  Meat,

Vegetables, anything.  An easy feat.

Toast to you I pour.
