Coffee Cup Canzonetta

Our back cupboard, the one which lies above 
the microwave, houses backup coffee
cups, with faded image of turtle doves
or like the camel cup just unwieldy.
Others with flaws, cracks or broken handles 
patiently waiting for someday repair
holding memories some might say shambles
patiently waiting for someday repair.
