That summer I'd cook my weekend dinner
Boil the water
Pour in the pebbly beans
Run outside, across the bridge, to the camp kitchen's garden
Grab a handful of herbs to add to the pot
Melt a section of frozen spinach and
Thaw out a piece of pita bread
Drain, transfer from pot to bowl
Top with feta cheese and scoop some hummus on the side
Slip out the back door, leaving sandals by the edge of the creek
Step in the cold water finding the best rock to recline
Listen to the sounds of home
It's not a recipe my parents made
But it's comfort just the same
