FOOD MOMENTS IN POETRY
I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox
and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast.
Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold.
William Carlos Williams
I eat my peas with honey
I've done it all my life
It makes the peas taste funny
but they do stick to my knife.

| Peas and honey. |
When my father had been dead a week
I woke
with his voice in my ear.
I sat up in bed
and held my breath
and stared at the pale closed door.
White apples and the taste of stone
if he called again
I would put on my coat and galoshes.
Donald Hall

| Galoshes |
There are four chairs round the table,
Where we sit down for our tea.
But now we only seat set places
For Mum, for Terry and me.
We don't chatter any more
About what we did in the day.
Terry and I eat quickly,
Then we both go out and play.
Mum doesn't smile like she used to.
Often, she just sits and sighs.
Sometimes, I know from the smudges,
That while we are out she cries.
John Foster.

- In my dream I'm flying over the sea. I can see a desert island. I'm very nervous because I can hear some strange noises. I imagine a person is coming up to me and I'm very much afraid. This big,big person is telling me: Inés!, Inés!. But.. the big person is my mother who is telling me it's time to get up!! (Inés Grande)
- In my dream I have a baby. She's blonde and is older than two. My baby very much looks like my friend's daughter. I'm taking her for a walk. She is sitting in her pram although she can walk and run after the pidgeons. It's a nice dream but the alarm goes off and I wake up. (Esther Sánchez)
