Mistress Of Spice

 Mistress Of Spice #namowrimo

Helper in the kitchen
Meddling with spices
Turmeric turns pale
Chilly  hot
Cinnamon alert
Stands erect
Bay leaves stretch
Shamelessly on its back
Spices look for attention
Each promising
Unique flavors
Helper grabs
Red chilly powder
Dumps it
into pool of curds
Lime giggles
Slightly squeezed
Wet to the core
Curry in pot
Boiled to brim
Oil peep
through slimy screen
Cardamom, fennel
Cumin cloves
Shared a wink
Through ebbs and flows
Salt is cool
White as snow
Awaits for its turn
proud, confident
The real taste lies
In its skin
Just a pinch
For a tasty meal.
May be an image of food
