~just a flutter'd thought...

I smiled in my mind sipping in your words

   coffee in hand, poems warming my intentions

a day without poetry is not my cuppa tea

    so much passion and emotion spilling forth

warmimg pages to be fervently devour'd 

      whets my appetite from within

fills my cup so it runneth over captivated in anticipation...

I see myself reflected back in creamy billows of frothy foam

          fettered in the dark richness of your brew

Languishing in these moments, sharing so many views

    fills my heart with gladness that we have collectively pen'd another day

a poet's ardent soul is meant to be shared and cherished

     like prayers on gentle winds they float en masse on wing'd spirits

I do so on this glorious day as you earnestly

 flutterby...

[Joyce S. Greene]

Yes, indeed, Frieda, a day without poetry is bleak indeed. And a gifted and prolific poet, like you, need never be without a poem.

I see myself reflected back in creamy billows of frothy foam
fettered in the dark richness of your brew

Really beautiful! May your pen never fail to brew delicious cups of poetry.

[Frieda P]

Thanks so much Joyce, glad you enjoyed this one!

A testament to the beauty of poetry...and a poetess.

[kublakhan27]

[Seashell]

Good grief...this brought tears to my eyes...The vision the feeling the emotion and the simplicity not forgetting the passion, spilled over in to my saucer !!
Absolutely beautiful

[Frieda P]

Wow Seashell, you're the second person that said that, thanks so much for your kind words. :-)

"we have collectively pen'd another day" Indeed we have....and it is a glorious thing, my friend. Drinking in the coffee and reading the words....we get to enjoy each other and life. An anthem for the WC if you ask me. Magnifique! Lydi**

[Frieda P]

Thanks for your gracious review Lydi, jazzed you enjoyed!

[Misery]

Through skin and bone and stoic facades - straight to the essence.
Thank you, Frieda, for words that are my cup of tea.

[Frieda P]

Jazzed you enjoyed Misery, one lump or two? :-)

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

See this is why I hate being on the road, I get poetry withdrawals... a very honest and open hearted expression of yourself.

[Frieda P]

Ha I hear ya Taz, thanks, enjoy your weekend.

[MsJewel]

Poetry and coffee - two of my very favorite things...

I love the softness of your words Frieda - like a butterfly fluttering....
Lovely!

Mine too Julie, thanks, glad you enjoyed my caffeinated musings. :-)

[Pryde Foltz]

Poetry, coffee, and love...sublime. Sip...sip.

[Frieda P]

I like that Pryde, would be a great coffee house name, where there's an open mic....thanks!

[Kelly Scheppers]

My coffee begins my day. After the cats and the fish are fed, I cup my morning brew and head straight for my desk. That's where I slowly become human again!

You have such a prolific soul, Frieda...and it shines brilliantly here!

[Frieda P]

Awh thanks Kelly, you're too kind, and I so agree, coffee and poetry make me feel human again too!
