Kitchen Haiku by Michelle Ross

A water bottle;
covered with tropical fronds;
autumn in Woy Woy.

On the highest shelf;
behind new kitchenware; sits
the blue jug we made.

Cumin and nutmeg;
mustard seed and paprika;
all spices are here.

Hemp tea leaves to soothe;
all the cares of the world;
and put me to sleep

Tiny moorish tiles;
- bright painted and patterned - hold;
my thoughts to the fridge.
