Moments of silence,

Form around my morning coffee

I stare out into space

My hands wrapped around my favorite mug

Thick and heavy and white

Pictures of writers, writing…

I found it at a book store coffee shop

Loved it so much, I went back for another

It has become part of my mornings

Steamy aroma, wafts

Around, up and over, edging

Between my thoughts

Blank pages

Wait for my coffee

To push me into a writing mode

Espresso grind of inspiration

My hands warmed, I set my favorite mug aside

And stare out the window…

I love the poem and the peacefulness about it. I especially liked the line “Espresso grind of inspiration,” as well as the photo that goes with the poem. It adds an extra element that words alone don’t quite bring.

Half Pint,
Thank you! The photo wasn’t suppose to have the cat, but Kenshin appears whenever I pull out the camera.

I like how staring out the window seems to be what you “warm up” for. I wish I had more time to plan on abandon, these days.

drj3kyll,
I never plan , to do nothing, it just sneeks up on me:-)
Gerardine

i can relate, totally.

kseverny,
Enjoy your coffee, and have a great weekend!

The part about the smell of coffee getting between your thoughts was sweet. It’s an unexpected turn of phrase, but I totally get what you mean.

Kelsey,
Thank you,
Gerardine

oh it sounds so incredibly peaceful, to the point of relaxing me when I read it,
with 10 kids in my house right now, you KNOW you did a great job, lol
