I wasn’t born with one
Not an ivory, silver nor gold
Not humble nickel-plated copper nor tin
Not a precious carving from antler nor bone
My spoonful was served from a wooden one

    Oh, I like the journey through the materials and the associations. Beautiful.

    Nicely done, Crispina. There is nothing wrong with being raised by a wooden spoon. Means nothing was handed to you!
