Oh, that deep drum beat
‘Boom, ba boom boom’
Something reaffirming
A sound that says, ‘Ready!’
A freshly baked loaf
‘If it sounds hollow, it’s done.’

The kitchen is chilled
Bread doesn’t like this weather
It’s a slow dough day

Frenzied snowflakes fly
Stark white against the darkness
Stay inside and bake

impatience makes flat loaves

Kitchen smells delight
