I love this poem. The wisdom of the waitress is a textbook for paying attention, listening deeply, and satisfying so many different hungers. Just beautiful!

Thanks Gloria. I've been writing a lot about the coorelation between cooking, waiting tables and writing. It's all about feeding others and yourself. I'm glad you like this poem : )
