a recipe passed down

i've never
had a dish to brag about.
no family
recipe
handed down by my mother,
or aunts
or grandparents.
i have no cake,
no stew,
no pasta dish to give 
to you,
for which i can say,
there you go,
it's a secret,
so don't bother asking
how i made it.
but i am
able to heat
things up
in the microwave,
pop a cork and pour
a glass
of wine for you.
