A flick of the knob,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gurgle, gloop then splash! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Golden agav-e,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

apple cider vinegar, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay Safe and Eat Well, by Akiko Forbes<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Soup is done
Salad is made
Bread is ready <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fruits is on a platter
Dessert is in a fridge for later
Bubbles is waiting at the centre <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where is our guest?
When will the party start?
Why can’t we eat?
Hungry kids with wiggly feet <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are longing for the gathering
Long gone after
Pandemic arriving
Miss the family choir singing <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But now
People are gradually coming out
Cafes are quickly filled no doubt
Family is happily out and about <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dream for having parties and outings
Wish for receiving smiles and chatters
Joy of sharing dishes and stories <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until then
We just get close with our loved ones
We just enjoy each other’s companies
Even over the screens and the phones <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being apart is not a barrier
Spice to make our reunion merrier
Delicious food helps us feel happier <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So Stay safe and eat well <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
