Sipping Coffee Poetry Contest

Sponsored by Unseeking Seeker

10th Place

“God within me is the enjoyer of the aroma As also this dopamine boosting flavor I taste I surrender all pleasures to the dweller of my heart Breath by breath thus that my soul presence be chaste” An iron-grey sky I encounter along my path With God’s will a flight abroad will transport me safely An abiding faith inside, my spirit guide watches over me With consoling embrace and the warmth of the mug A morning prayer to begin the day: Please give me the strength and wisdom to face whatever challenges come my way A frothy display; foam adorns my top lip Now ready to devour a breakfast continental as I slowly savor my final sip

Congratulations on your win in the contest with this enchanting morning prayer! Sipping coffee first thing in the morning is a ritual for many of us, but the way you have connected your daily routine with worshipping God, my heart is full with spirituality. Thank you for noticing my blog - I am half-way with the translation...the story is about a brave woman fighting a physical condition...I will keep editing, Dear Friend, until I feel content. Love and Hugs, Sweet Poet-friend~

Ah this is stunning dear anaya! I love how descriptive it is and i can smell coffee through the continental breakfast too, how soulful and beautiful is the way you’ve woven this, “ Please give me the strength and wisdom to face whatever challenges come my way” i love how you’ve also depicted spirituality here, so heartfelt and sincere . Youv written very well for the line of inquiry. I believe. Best wishes for the contest, pleasure reading this

Love your take on the contest, your poem combines elements of spirituality, routine, and sensory experience to convey a moment of preparation and reflection. The language is straightforward yet evocative, allowing readers to connect with the speaker's internal and external journey as they navigate the challenges and rituals of a new day...

A frothy display; foam adorns my top lip Now ready to devour a breakfast continental as I slowly savor my final sip. You meticulously conveyed your love for coffee in the morning time, Anaya. Best wishes for the contest.

SP, it's just what the protagonist needed on the airplane, God's blessing & a Latte! I'm a coffee lover first in the morning, then green tea the rest of the day. Thank you!
