Dear Child

Poet Ana Daksina (Eureka, CA)

 

(Another occasion in which the poet made use of her works to celebrate local excellence)


Amigos Burritos

Many of the customers
One finds lunching here
Uniquely fascinating
To inquiring gaze appear

Conversations taking place
Over tacos here and there
Proceed in pleasant harmony
Between people self-aware

Fueled by genuinely
Delicious yummy food
Which turns the feelings naturally
To the wholesome and the good

They work hard behind that counter
Morning, noon and night
Creating for their diners
This quiet haven of delight

It isn’t often that I have
Funds discretionary
In their spirit’ual surrounding
Spend time eating happily

But when I do it’s swift unto
That fragrant place I go
The nourishing good energy
Of Eureka’s Amigos know
