hearty meal upon leaving 'Frisco
no heart to gorge much at one sitting
digestion smooth even flow
not heartless but heart-warming
top of the world enjoying the grub
no heartburn in firm control
to end with a good rub

Ahh, I wish I could feel like this. Nothing but heartburn these past few years for me; I long for the day of smooth digestion! Maybe one day. A very beautiful and awesome poem, Hank, I love how you utilized the dVerse prompt here. How clever!
ReplyDeleteAh Nice. Fully sated.

Much❤love
Must have been a scrumptious meal!!
ReplyDeletePleased Hank you enjoyed your meal,
ReplyDeleteAnd no heartburn you did feel.
Yvonne.
With that healthy selection, you're good!
ReplyDeleteIt's early. Instead of 'hearty meal' I first saw 'heavy metal.'
Hank - this is definitely a winner among all the heartfelt poems out there - you've cured my heartburn for sure :)
ReplyDeleteWell done!
Yours,
David [ben Alexander]
This sounds delightful - a banquet to savour!
ReplyDeleteA SFO gastronomic splurge ... love this, Hank. Mr. Tony too ......
ReplyDeleteAh. You're the first to consider heartburn, yet something so frequently experienced! Great interpretation of the challenge.
ReplyDeleteDelicious!
ReplyDeleteI love your many uses of the prompt word Hank! Well done ❤️ No bleeding hearts here - just heartburn 🤣
ReplyDeleteNothing like a good meal and no heartburn thereafter!
