Have ewe ever prepared a meal ewe think the best it has ever been the only meal just like it under sun
Peeling slicing and dicing and making all the spices by thy hand making all the little nuances to blend
Sure that everyone will praise ewe everyone should know just what this meal has meant just how the toil and sweat has bought this past repast to them and then
The daughter has to go so soon to be at other place with friends we have some pizza ordered in please save my place for another day another meal another lifetime away
And even husband gets into the act HE carefully describes the worlds worst headache as he rises from the table telling ewe he is unable to partake of this THE MEAL eye must lie down eye must be off eye must not eat eye have to sleep.
She carefully eats meat and savors her one bite she makes it last and discovers  all the flavor is just right she eats the thing and cries for daughter growing up and for the way the husband does. She does not cry too much but balances her fate and remembers her own love and she remembers that he eats a lot of meat and then she smiles at fate. He calls it fishing and he goes a lot to eat a lot of meat and then she smiles. She smiles at fate. She has her hearts desire,
A lover and a hire and a man and she is mine my hearts desire.
