The Absence of Wavelength

Silent Night (acrostic)

I don't normally write these:


  SILENT NIGHT 

Savoring her holiday confection, baked
Into shapely culinary perfection,
Love melts in watering mouths with each bite.
Each precisely portioned or severed slice
Neatly adorns her colorful, festive platter
Taken out each season from that relic cabinet.

Nestled in quiet of arm chair with loaded plate,
I settle warm to bathe in tinsel-absorbed state,
Groggily drift, dream of toothsome treats digested --
Hot or cool, salty yet sweet, tender and tasty,
Tradition lives on from oil-soiled recipe cards.
