day 25

For today's prompt, I want you to pick an event; make that event the title of your poem; and then write a poem. Think birthday. Think holiday. Think whatever.

eat, drink and be merry

minado japanese restaurant
long island
new york
eat as much as you like
buffet
special occasions
welcome home, happy anniversary
goodbye forever
i love you
an endless array
of japanese dishes
hot, cold, sweet, sour
soft, crispy
a celebration of over indulgence
no limits
except those imposed by appetite
food to flirt over
an abundance to argue over
did you ever imagine
that there would be
a last time
