Saw her last,
wrapped in sniffles and coughs,
Hence my Green
Tea gift for convalescence,
Eyes narrowed,
lips pursed as she grimaced,
Thanks for
savorless brew for lifeless tongue.
She was of
impeccable taste, from tan to toe,
Sampling
experience, nourished with such,
Awed by the
pleasant, bored with the good,
In her chase from
Here Now to Where Never.
