Coffee Not Tea For Andrea,Carolyn and Linda-Marie

Coffee not Tea for Andrea,Carolyn and Linda-Marie

Come on ladies pull out a chair and have a seat.
Pour yourself a cup of coffee and sugar makes it sweet.

A friendly conversation and a cup of joe.
To ask about my fellow poets who I hardly know.

We didn't dress fancy or pretty up our hair.
Told one another about things we needed to share.

There are things in life women need to say.
Sometimes in troubles we ask our friends to pray.

So Andrea,Carolyn or Linda-Marie.
If you need a cup of java remember me.
                            Teresa Skyles

Entered in Micheal J.Falotico"First words over coffee"contest.

Just saw Andrea's comment and I don't drink coffee either, but would still enjoy a get-together! Perhaps "tea for three." Love, Carolyn

Sweet Teresa, you are such a dear friend. I would certainly enjoy meeting you and Andrea for some girl talk. Isn't it cool that ladies don't have to dress up or put on makeup for each other? Certainly wishing you success in the contest! Love, Carolyn
