Clinking wine glasses —
The sound of love
Can be subtle. (#135)
*
This, too, is love —
The sound of two plates
As I wash them. (#136)
*
Sound of plates —
I wash the dishes;
You kiss me hard. (#137)
*
Broken faucet —
I can’t stop love
Dripping for you. (#138)
*
Broken record —
There are many ways
Of falling in love. (#139)
*
Cooking with wine —
I always think of him,
Who’ll enjoy my dinner. (#140)
*
Chocolate dessert —
I will keep eating them
Until your kisses stop me. (#141)
*
Last bite of dessert —
Where there is unselfishness,
There is love. (#142)
*
Kitchen dance —
You and I, cutting vegetables
Like we are married. (#143)
*
Kitchen knife —
I think of my heart
As you slice the tomatoes. (#144)
*
Tomato halves —
Because you kiss me,
I think they’re gorgeous. (#145)
*
Purple onions —
Because you chopped them,
I think they’re sweet. (#146)
*
Garlic, tomatoes, and onions —
You think of everything
Before saying “I love you.” (#147)
*
Garlic, tomatoes, and onions —
When you say “I love you”,
They mingle into a kiss. (#148)
*
Kitchen kiss —
Among the pots and kettles,
I am the shiniest. (#149)
*
Wine while we cook —
Before the chicken is done,
We are done with dinner. (#150)
*
Lovers and cooks —
Every dish is perfect
With a magic kiss. (#151)
*
If you cannot cook,
At least, kiss me
While I cook. (#152)
*
Kitchen aromas —
You talk about them;
I smell them, too. (#153)
*
Kitchen flavors —
I like it when you lick
Things off my finger. (#154)
*
Chopping onions —
I know I will forgive you
Before dinner is served. (#155)
*
Kitchen love —
I will always remember you
In chopped onions. (#156)
*
Chopping onions —
It’s not your tears,
But the crying onions. (#157)
*
Bleeding tomatoes —
I see my heart next to yours
In a sauce pan. (#158)
