fancy restaurant—
the house salad served
on a single lettuce leaf                         Michael

 

hearts of romaine
baby’s first kick                             Billie

 

panzanella for two
the waiter’s serenade
slightly off-key                                   Naia

 

fruit salad finished
I drink its juice                              Oleg

 

Balsamic, no oil
tart and sweet
the way I like it                                   Ash

 

he picks through spinach
for the candied walnuts                       Deborah
