You take down a mason jar
and blow the dust out of it,
fill it with holy lemonade,
and hand it to your grandmother.

 

You count His freckles
while He cuts onions,
mutilates parsley,
and offers you a taste off a wooden spoon.

 

And you feel it beginning,
it leaps from the tip
of your nose into the
boiling pot of minestrone.
