Coffee Ringed Thesaurus

Sunday morning
memories shimmering
old thesaurus scarred with coffee rings
mind sprouting... evergreen...
water colored peace

I have a red dictionary with these rings, and the back spine is totally off, no idea why we like them this way, but it is comfortable and fine to me. Your reminder of a poem made me smile.
