A nice blend

Throw in a pinch of love
A blast of air
Mix them together
Sizzling on a frying pan.

Add some salt and pepper
Add some hearts' desire
A bit of time, a bit of space,
And a whole pot full of haste.

Slowly and tenderly,
stroke the fire burning gently,
Use the wood to blow a little wind
Fan the flame from within

Some lust or secret seduction,
like melting chocolate over a hot furnace,
Some dreams or lofty aspiration
like glass roasting on an open fire.

The opening of a can
its bubbles of fizz floating upwards
like joy in a symphony
the emotions in its quivers
Though it does not waver.

A nice blend it is.
A nice band we are.
A nice blended band we'll be.
