Line Gauthier Poet Acrostic

First Cup

Mellow few minutes to ease into the morning 
Opportunity to take three deep grateful breaths 
Rhythmic nonchalance kicks routine in slow motion 
November cold dreary skies peer through my window 
Impeccably roasted Arabica beans… b r e w e d 
Nothing beats these few precious moments of silence 
Game plan for the day can wait just a bit longer

Complacency hovers gently filling my mind 
Optimistic thoughts bring a smug smile to my face
Frivolous instants of doing flat out nothing 
Frenetic tempo expected throughout the day
Eagerness, an amusing exaggeration
Earthquake withstanding, I’m ready to start my day
