Strong, dark, steaming in the early
morning.
Gentle lingering aroma unwrapping
last nights sheets,
Slowly waking me up.
The scent dancing around the edge of my nose.
I shower and dress, dress the kids,
prepare and pack their breakfast and lunch.
Coats are on…
Tall beige with brown gets filled to
its line, a dash of cinnamon, a dash of nutmeg, 4 teaspoon of sugar Slowly mix…
Bring close to my lips; whispering
the steam away
Take that first Bustelo sip, and now I’m ready to start my day!
