Premium Member Another Day - Another Morning Coffee
The black depths of a coffee beckon the mind into a bottomless gaze - you stir and feel yourself swirl in a dizzying haze and hope you will slowly dissolve into nothing at all. But somehow you manage to hold, grab the edges, survive another close call. ...

The Coffee is Bitter Today
I don't know why. I added the same sugar, poured from the same tin. But it reminds me of farewells those spoken casually, like we wouldn't miss each other. Like love could be scheduled. This bitterness it's not the coffee. It's remembering your face only through photos your voice buried beneath children's laughter....

Premium Member Morning Coffee
The mother-in-law woke me with her dry cough. The electric alarm clock is registering 6am; two hours since the baby’s last feed— the one she came to help me with. I crawl out of my warm bed to put the kettle on and select the chipped coffee mug for her. ...

A Sip, and a Farewell
I drank a sip of coffee from the hand of that gentle beloved— and with it, I said goodbye. Yet the bitterness of parting never fades from memory. Grief beads like blood on the brow of longing. I wander the alleys of your love, seeking union— my sighs and sorrows rising past the seventh sky. Time gave me nothing but a goblet filled with blood. Perhaps it has vowed to...

Lively at eight, the pool’s a.m. Morning coffee’s brewing; I’m bending. Noodled ‘til class end, then I sip. Ostentatious sciatica Propels me into later wake. ...

We move through the night, though the streets seem empty, we look left and right, electric vehicles are stealthy. As we exercise stepwise, sunrise happens. and black night fades its cover. Like phoresy, painted, pieces of heaven, the day opens with primary colors— reds that delight, oranges that tease and peacocking yellows that leaven. As the counterfeit rainbow enchants and rouses, streetlights waver and douse, lights flicker...

Premium Member The Coffee I Sip Without You
In a city of fog and summerless light, London hums softly, but nothing feels right. Years have withered, your name still flows Mithila, a whisper the morning wind knows. We never danced in moonlit embrace, Nor traced our fingers across time or space. But the dots were sent… three soft ellipses… Spoke louder than touches or lover’s kisses. I heard you, without words,...

Premium Member Coffee cup glued to her Hand
Nyla has a coffee mug glued to her hand Spends all her time in the coffee bar, Latte Land Must have fresh ground roast; nothing common or canned Complains if she tastes one teensy bit of coffee sand Nyla has some kind of weird coffee bean-loving gland. Around this mug, her right hand is usually fanned. Puts on airs, acts like...

Clouds In My Coffee
Clouds In My Coffee Just wondering. Clouds in my coffee. Wake up early in the morning. Day dreamer. Crisp morning air. After the rain falls. No plans. Just my imagination. Grateful for each day. Hot coffee with steam. No worries. Set free. No drama. No cell phone. No problems. Peaceful evenings. A simple life. While...
