love in the morning.

The eggs, raw and liquidy in the silver bowl

Stirred into a color between
orange yolk and clear fluid.

Swirled with lines of seasoned salt,
decorating not only the eggs
but my tongue too.

The salt is a gift from you.

You told me that secret
on a morning in October
when you cared that I
had the best eggs in the world.
