Coffee Time

Coffee Time

A Poem by Ubie Dropout
"

a change in perspective can happen at any time and it is usually for the better.

"
In the early morning 
But it can be right just about any time 
The steam rises from the flowery arranged mug 
A moment is found to simply release And set things in motion 
After the first sip 
The thoughts come rushing in like a storm of children who want to be chosen first for a kickball team 
It's all up to you which will be focused on 
In this air of time where all things seem possible 
That is before looking out the window 
And finding the same cold dreary darkness 
Which continues to make its attempts 
The same old story 
Yesterday's news 
Jack Frost and his poisonous freezing touch 
Is just another force in a long line of troubling oppositions needed to be Pushed against 
Or played with? 
All to easily it can be forgotten 
While deep in character of an adult role 
The problematic messy nature of the climate 
Can only be seen in our wise adult eyes As an annoying nuisance 
Instead of the beautiful pure wonder in the eyes of a child 
Who Seem to be able to find an exciting adventure to be explored in everything.
