Holding and touching
From soft to hard, smooth and rough
Living and the still

Pets of many kinds
Cats, dogs, with fur so soft
to turtles hard shells

To holding newborns
Teaching them to read and write
Caring for others

To Going fishing
Climbing up the steep mountains
and ending in bed

Small, sweet milk-white squares
Fresh fruits and nuts chopped
Hazelnuts, pistachios,
cashews, dried cherries
Honeyed-almonds, crunch
So toothsome
Yum!

Been a while since I had some good nougat, I love when they add more dried fruits such as apricots. They're my favourite.
My sweet-tooth continues to rage, lool!

The taste of well prepared poetry is something you won't fast forget.
Each phrase is fresh, seasoned with restraint and mixed with passion.
Patiently simmered or flash fried, the result is something to be savoured. 
Hold it on your tongue with relish, while the juices coat your chin, but be quick to scoop them up and sip them again for that unexpected echo of the explosion of textures held in each line.
The taste of well prepared poetry
is something you won't fast forget.
And there's always seconds on offer.
I saw a book entitled 'The sound of paper'.  I reversed the image for a 'taste of poetry' and went from there.

the dress is lying still
on her hips
but not at rest
a tight caress
that stalks in wait
proxy to the prey
black widow web?
