The Bowl ©

 I stared at the bowl
 Like it had a fortune to tell
 Ceramic and cold
 bleeding pastel
 Mint and green and odd with shape
 Light offers a dare 
  my eyes match the shade
 Sit it in the middle
 The heart of this wood
 Why fill it with something
 when it is already good
 Trysts for fruit and sweets and need
 But really bare is plenty good enough for me
 And while conversation circles round and round
 The rim feeds on what we have already found
