Ode to my cup

Your top edge is geometry – a never-ending finger-tracing line. Your inside is liquidity – a tepid spa of chocolate that I’d rather had been hot. Your handle bends its elbow. Linking up, I sip. A tulip to my lips – You are my cup.

And here I am holding it again as I read. Glad you enjoyed (and a cup is a lovely hand-shaped thing). Thanks for your kind words. J :)
