Endless Day

Shared my morning coffee with a squirrel
he chattered on about the acorn fall
while balanced on a flaming Maple bough
then gone into the fervor of his day

Meditated on the rainbow oily black
sipped the potent potion out of need
felt the warmth of love's soft eyes
sweet embers of an everlasting flame

Rekindling the moments of a life
a shower dropped a ripple in my cup
sending a gentle shiver up my spine
cold rain upon another endless day

Hilarious! John, an enjoyable condensed piece, albeit, sorry for my late timing for your submission would have placed much, much, higher, had contest rules been followed, nonetheless, congrats on your honorable win, Aloha! William
