How beautiful
to become aware of yourself existing
to wake to the tiny pleasure
of a warm brioche
and cup of coffee, interrupted only
from the paper’s bad news
by the brief commotion of
a woman in yellow
losing her scarf to the breeze,
startling the realisation from you
that such a moment maybe everything;
a quiet cup of coffee
on a breezy morning in spring
life still lifting
it’s warm lips to yours.
The poem is a good start to begin the day.. Loved it...?
I really like this Tom ?
I love the line about being interrupted by the paper's bad news in particular. Excellent Tom. I was look forward to reading your work.
Nice one

Such a lovely poem! Thanks, Jane
Really like this one Tom. I've been working on one very similar the last couple of days; same setting, same theme but I've not been able to make it pithy enough. And now you've beaten me to it! ? Great work.
