A Cup of Coffee on The House 





A Cup of Coffee on The House 


Fantasy. 

A powerful Pacific Albatross 

Gracefully landed on fairy-moss 

That covered my welcoming pathway 

And graciously handed me a sacred Mandala 


Reality. 

The postman delivered a special parcel today 

A belated Christmas gift from America 

A wonderful hand-painted coffee mug 

And this afternoon I enjoyed 

“A Cup of Coffee on The House” 

Thanks to my friends at Coffee House Writers

That Old Familiar Fireplace

The year faltered and stumbled by

After Santa’s last reindeer traveled the sky

Months of ‘covid’ blocked all roads to Rome

That prevented families from going home

When the festive season did arrive

Finally there were real hugs and high fives

Rejoicing among warm hearts and smiling faces

Standing cozily beside those old familiar fireplaces

New Windows

New Windows

•

The day after

Flying around this old tree

Life is slowly coming back to me

•

I step away from my “Itmims” sleigh

To embrace the new world

And give celebrations another whirl

•

With a life full of joy

My journey continues

To dance through

Lockdown’s open windows
