From the backyard we used to play in
Now, a garden of sorts
I write to you from the porch
Overlooking rows of tomatoes
The cherry ones will always be yours
A reminder of our summer cooking course
Pick and wash the best Romas, please
Bring them inside, and I will add:
Basil, mozzarella and parmesan cheese
The olive oil is for drizzling
Conversations with you are riveting
As nurturing as the soil, our tomatoes grow in
