recipe

early morning where the only distraction
is the sound of the birds greeting the day
and creating their breakfast recipe,
two parts seed and one part protien,
a perfect mixture combined with water for

another day
another week
another month
another year
of foraging

one third of a cup of life left to use,
for what recipe do I have the ingredients,
tried and true, biscuits and gravy, sweet or savory
or something that has yet to be tasted,
a blank index card sits before me to create

measure
combine ingredients
mix well
bake until golden brown
serve warm
