Food Poem Friday: Gather 'Round the Campfire

Every Friday, and sometimes on Thursdays, we’re mixing things up with a different kind of food writing. More specifically, food poetry to be read slowly, over your morning coffee. Today, a little fun with meter and marshmallow-toasting.

Do you have your camping essentials yet? No? We’ll wait.

When you do, gather them up and head out to make a fire -- fall breezes like these are made for huddling around a campfire, blankets at the ready and hot tea in hand. We’d be remiss if we didn’t remind you to bring s’mores fixings, though, so today, we have a poem for you that’ll do just that.

Read this and tell us, what’s your roasting style?
