Oatmeal

May 20, 2023 by Bridgette

poetry: comfort

2/30

warm sunlight trapped
in golden stalks
sits so pretty
within pottered glass.
bright cinnamon dances 
honeyed by walnuts.
it smells like
sprinkled brown sugar
tiny silver spoons
chubby neck rolls
wooden high chairs.
bring me wholeness—
blue sky comfort
thick sweet memory.
