i was a foodie far longer than a writer. my twitter name is @poetpassionbakr or poetry passion pastry because i am passionate about poetry and baking. i find many things about food and the preparation of it to be quite sensual, don’t you? in response to Claudia Schoenfeld’s fabulous “Foodloose“ prompt over at dVerse ~ Poets Pub, i’m going to share some of my culinary fantasies~
*
speaking to me of food
is my personal aphrodisiac
*
tell me how you knead the dough
*
*
chop fresh herbs
*
pour olive oil on tomatoes
and roast whole bulbs of garlic
let me watch you
dipping fruit in chocolate
arranging cheese on a plate
*
*
*
*
*
pouring red wine
*
*
or cream into iced coffee
speak to me of food in French
croissants, brioche, baguettes
*
*
*
crêpes and quiche and escargot
fromage de chèvre or cuit camembert
crème brûlée, be still my beating heart!
*
food porn
doesn’t do justice to
the desire ignited
by talking to me of food

hmmmm….the french are for sure masterful with their food…love to eat over in france…their cuisine mirrors their way of looking at life in general…and heck yes…watch how someone eats and you may know how he is as a lover…ha
{smile} a woman after my heart {or stomach?} i enjoyed the prompt, Claudia! thank you! ♥
There is so much overlap with food and sex – from the making to the eating. Sensuous plus.
{smile} thanks for stopping by!
haha there is def a seductiveness to food…and cooking together…that is a sensual experience…mmm…they always said food ins the way to a mans heart…well i think they might want to ammend that…hehe…
{giggle}
Mmmm, I am sighing and moaning and making such sounds as may convince my closest neighbors that I have an exceptionally skillful lover in my house this morning! But no, it is this post. The food! Oh my.
There is a magazine I deliver sometimes, that has a back cover feature where one side is “The Right Stuff” or something to that effect, and it always features dried crabgrass husks or something. The other side is labeled “Food Porn” and is always some million-calorie heart attack on a plate that they deplore. I always want the Food Porn!
i am addicted to food porn! ♥
Dani, those pictures don’t take many words to make them into delicious ‘food porn.’ I hadn’t known you were a foodie…smiles. I am too if someone cooks FOR me. LOL.
if we ever get together, Mary, i’ll not only cook for you, i’ll bake something for you. {smile}
Yummy table full of goodies ~ This was like going to a party, thanks for the lovely share ~
the best thing about food porn is zero calories! {smile} thanks for stopping in, Heaven! ♥
I am so there. In an ancient movie called ‘Tom Jones’ there was a scene of a couple devouring a primitive meal that really was like watching them have sex–and I think the parallel works well. This is a most delicious offering, dani, especially all the french at the ‘climax.’ ;_)
i remember that scene! hmmmm… what’s the French word for ‘climax’ i wonder? ♥
Good people love poetry and food — I am seeking redemption. Your porn helps me bridge the boring world of us aesthetic-improverished. Thats, well done !
thanks, Sabio! i’m glad you enjoyed it!
I often find poetry baffling. I enjoy it, but do not quite get it. This is a poem after my own heart.
truthfully, i could have just posted the pictures without any words at all, don’t you think? {smile} thank you for your visit and comment! ♥
I am a lover of food, if someone cooks for me. You make it sound very sexy, sensual in the preparation. I guess it could be with a partner as interested in us as in the food ..lol Food porn… wonderful description. :)
i can’t take credit for the term ‘food porn’ ~ there is actually a food porn site which puts up new photos of food every day. i am fortunate that my man enjoys talking about, preparing and eating food as much as i do. {smile}
