Beef Soup

The smell of parsley on my fingers
Spreading around in the kitchen
From a red pot bulging with steam
Full of carrots, beef ribs and things

Hidden in my cave I cautiously inhale
The secret thoughts of vegetables
Seething out in sudden fits
Covering the world with spicy mists

I am undoubtedly a strayed queen
Exiled to this land others have seen
Forced to discover bright pots and pans
And rest my dreams in herbal veils

A winter day or is it night?
The windows sweat, on is the light
I feel so safe, the doors are shut
On the hot soup to my delight.
