#Inktober2019: Wild

              Wild About

I am wild about white chocolate scones
or cupcakes holding up mounds of frosting
I am wild about paninis stacked with turkey,
thin cheese slices and all manner of accouterments 
Raspberry chocolate- chip yogurt ice cream
in a cup with an inverted sugar cone placed
at a jaunty angle makes any afternoon celebratory
I am wild about cracking unsalted pistachios 
while working on a Times crossword puzzle
If I am  saying ,”this is the last time” I’m
probably opening up a package of chips
I am wild about chocolate covered apricots,
blueberries and slivers of ginger
I am wild about free food samples and thumb size
samples of white wine at a tasting
And I am in love with brunch buffets and potluck dinners
I am wild about dishes prepared by someone else
