Coffee and Morning

Coffee and morning
do go well together.

Sitting on my front stoop
letting the sun tickle me

Thru the maple leaves,
shelter to the bluejay.

He squawks and hops
his early abolutions.

Baby touch breezes
brush the sleepy

Night from my eyes,
urges me away

From coffee and
morning contemplation.
