Sean Rima: A Poem A Day #3.
February 1, 2019 2:26PM CST
Caldo.
On the worst day ever,
all you need is a big ol’ pot
filled with boiled chicken,
minced garlic, chopped
onion, sliced squash,
red peppers, carrots,
celery, potatoes,
corn,
a fistful of cilantro,
a stack of warm tortillas,
some shredded cheese,
and all the folks
who love you, standing in
line by the stove with
empty bowls.
