About this listen

In life’s kitbag of essentials food and drink are right at the top. Their variety and ways to consume are a wonder, both of nature’s offerings and human creativity.

Ingredients of many kinds are grown, harvested and prepared for dishes and drinks to offer sustenance, comfort and pleasure. These simple necessities of life can also at times seem like luxuries.

For our classic poets ranging from Ancient Romans to Elinor Wylie and Rainer Maria Rilke, their recipes for verse using the simple ingredients of words and imagination are a wonderful and enduring example of their craft and art applied to the one thing mankind looks forward to each and every day.
