The waitress at the cafe

A poem about someone who would be greatly missed if she were to leave.

Ignore the rude comments.
Be yourself around the customers.
We're allowed to feel emotions,
As servers in the cafe.

The lights may be dim,
And the guests may be unruly,
But working here has brought me to you.

The cafe can always use the spices you bring to the table,
With every dish you serve.
Always something new, but sad.
I've grown very used to that

Hikari, we could use you here.
Here in the busy aisles of the cafe.

Yes beautiful piece. She would really be missed if she were to leave.

A beautiful poem, I've worked in cafés and restaurants, bars and pubs, years gone by...
And these were some of the finest friendships that were formed.
Nicely written.

[Augustus Waters]

That's because she wrote a poem about her leaving, and I wrote my response and how I interpret her being here at Writer's Cafe

[Cory Barrett]

I bet she wishes she wrote this

Your language, arranged in memorable short phrases, is so compelling, and the emotions you convey are all but palpable.
