Baking Pulla

The cardamom
smell from the baking bread
reminds me of fingers
bruising leafy herbs
before the sun beats
too hot,
butter melting


Peace...

  1. Great - I've just read http://namingconstellations.wordpress.com/2012/01/13/small-stone-january-13-2012/ as well, and this is a good partner to that small stone. This is beyond my best hopes for "Small Stones..." Thanks, hugely!

  2. And where, may I ask, is the recipe for the bread that looks good enough to pull from the screen and eat?

    1. Thank you Kevin. Baking the Pulla really connected me to my family--and to my writing. More on that later, friend. Peace...
