Oh Look, A Flower

in writing •  8 years ago  (edited)

My stomach feels empty, but I continue to trudge along in search of food.

I stumble across a flower, so succulent and so sweet, a delightful present to take my mind off the heat. I don't come across these often, but when I do, I savor my finding.

I start by nibbling on the outer edges of the hibiscus, and slowly work up to a moderate pace.

I slowly eat the colorful specimen, careful bites in succession. It is quite rare that I get to devour something so tasty and satisfying. I make the most of it.

All done. I have filled my stomach and I am once again satisfied. Time to find another flower.
