*your favourite food - may it a main course or snack or beverage or just even a fruit or veggie or even water;) describe poetically in max. 50 words.

Pls note the below points of consideration for the comp.

*max. 50 words. the lesser the words, the better actually. So the most effective viz minimalist wins  

*not jus words, add in your poetics your magic.. may be metaphors or hyperboles or any poetic tools or types, striking memories or touching emotions or just any inexplicable X factor

* scores there for  your own visual that’s apt to the words, a fusion of images or art etc etc . no copyright violations of images . if other images used, give credit to it.

* of course, no AI generated poems. No extreme content, & preferably no extreme foods too, like cannibalism or such some weirdness perhaps pls.

*one last request, no chats on comp. thread, any doubts further, inbox me .

*one or more reasons for this comp.
Food is utmost fuel & necessity to live, & then some to relish & then some  more critical things like- in our culture, one says - you are what you eat; food is the best medicine , etc etc etc . Let’s pen it’s greatness or need or gratitude or prayers for a greener tomorrow. me self an R&D food techie btw. So workwise it’s in me too, this needful food

It needs to be Italian Food, or I don't eat

Feast on carbohydrates
Cavatelli, Angel Hair, Mezzi Rigatoni....Great!!
Manicotti, Tortellini, Fussili....Divine!
Tagliatelle and Farfalle are okay, but never as good as Stuffed Shells
You better cook my pasta Al Dente, cause if you don't, I will destroy you!

A bite of Heaven

Creamy and
warm
enveloped by
softness

A delicate meal,
often blanketed with sauce.

a slightly sticky
dough shell
hiding away
rich secrets

Sometimes round,
sometimes square.

impatiently waiting
for them to rise
in the boiling water
with fingers pressed
into the warm stovetop
