Preserves

Preserve your favor lover - a little bit for later
Patted down with spices from all four winds
Offered with olives and sun dried tomato
Help me discover where the spice isle begins

Preserve my enrapture - another moment's pause
Saved to "favorites" in a folder marked "My Man"
Observe my devotion to your every worthy cause
It's your turn to take while I give what I can

Preserve your loving kindness - forever shown to me
Ice it down good and stick it up under the shade
Un-nerve you see - this tiny speck I've come to be
Show me unreservedly many ways I've got it made

Preserve your preference - please don't count it duty
Sugar soaked in Sure-Gel and put up in a in Mason jar
Hors-d-ouerve on occasions your a la carte beauty
Each course  more  savory  than the ones before

Preserve your affection - yet for me in waning phase
Sent to your hard drive and kept for no good reason
Conserved in clay vessels and cached in cryptic caves
Save a little of your sunshine for my monsoon season
