Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Mum the Financial Advisor

Mum, The Financial Advisor ‘You are the tea leaves I am the teapot, I the tiny snowflake and you the snow’ Thus sets the stage of similarities and whatnot, lighting the mood for the afterglow, The morning after, we see what had been taught, not much but the status quo, You are the cream and sugar, I am the coffee, I the beehive and you the honey, Taste has sweetened, well-brewed and lofty, firm prospect meaning money, More meaningful, and the setting more warmly, gainfully significant and carefree, Ergo, breakfast entertains calmly and promptly, ending in a financial apogee, Good morning moments, familial time, satisfyingly, and a future that was meant to be. 2020 February 24 *2nd Place* Poetic lines from a Poetry Soup Poet - Maria Williams ~~Silent One
