Lathering a Coffee Day

LATHERING A COFFEE DAY
.    .     .          .         .    .

wispy threads fall like crystal glass
   frothy eyes drenched  with slits 
        icy bubbles lathering soft giggles 
snugly bugs flirt with moist grass

              ~ ~ ~

boat bathing on a rippled ballet sway
   coat of rain perfumed nude flesh
        note sings the aftermath of suds
roast coffee brews a pillowed day

Salamat Nette para sa iyong uri komento! I haven't been lately on Soup and still got these problems with both arms and right hand. The physiotherapy didn't help much and it's still painful. Lovely penned verses! Will post another Haiku today on Soup. Hope you're ok and have a nice week! Hugs, Gert:)

A very interesting write. You have an unique way with words. Some of the words are a bit of a tongue twister. Thanks for sharing your words with us, and thanks for reading my work, JancarlC.
