Crowding the Mouth With Sweetness

November PAD Challenge, Day 13.   Prompt:  Write a "recipe" poem.

one part patience
two parts endurance
one part, again, of
understanding--
mix them well and
leave them to warm
in the sun

see what will
sprout.   will these
vines bear fruit?  will
they embrace you in
midsummer, crowding
your mouth with
sweetness?
