Table For One

mellow just chilling
sitting back
listening to
coffeehouse tunes
sipping a tall americano
at a table for one
set by the window
in the far corner
winding down
doodling pen in hand
jotting rough lines
of a poem on a napkin
pulling it together
precious me time
hiding out where
i can lose myself
and not be found

Miss Line, you never fail to inspire folks with WELL WRITTEN WORDS. From now on when I see WWW, it will remind me of your work. Anyone of us can write a good poem from time to time. But I place your work as exceptional 90% of the time and great 8% of the time and the rest are good. I'm surprised you head doesn't implode for using up all those words stored in there!

'Table for One' is the perfect title for this bit of introspection. I sure can relate to 'hiding out' from time to time. ~ gw
