Comfort Food
Sometimes you just need
Food that tastes like home,
Flavors you share with someone else,
Smells that make you smile.
I used to think that
What you ate was not important.
I was wrong about that.
The smells sneak up on you.
Smells that take you back to places,
You’d forgot you’d left behind;
A joy that all of us,
In the family share it.
