tone
affirms
attitude
choose
words wisely
as you descend
on your desired
destination
in the meantime
maybe munch on
various
menu items
that pair perfectly
with your personal
preferences
like
honey butter
dripping
from freshly
baked bread
or
maybe
a collection
of cool crispy
carrots and cucumbers
paired
with a cup
of your preferred
cool-dill condiment
perhaps
a hot drink
that needs to chill
until safe to sip
else risking
searing your
tongue
you are,
by the way,
free
to settle
for standard
salted nuts
and soda
(with or without ice)
it’s up to you
