Poem: Chime

The chime above the door sings

as you come gliding through,

bringing along the velvet breeze

of the autumn winds outside.

Your hands cradle your cheeks

as your arms rest on the counter,

and your coffee breath wafts

to me like a whispered secret.

The chime above the door sings

as you float away through it,

my heartbeat carried on the wind

to you like a whispered secret.

Poem: Caramel

A thousand shades of caramel

waft inward with the wind

as your melting chocolate locks

drip their sugar down your skin.

Poem: Solo

She danced around the room,

looking people in the eyes

as she twirled past them,

never meeting the same gaze

twice. In the flashing lights,

spinning late into the night,

she was untouchable,

her tears dripping like sweat,

catching light like diamonds,

slipping, unseen, to the ground

as she kept gliding forward,

spinning late into the night.

Poem: It Rained Today

It rained today, and I wondered

Where I was in the universe,

A speck on a speck on another,

Wishing not to be washed away.

Poem: Coffee Date

For once, I’d like to love you

in a typical way, weekends

with planned coffee dates

in picture-perfect cafes,

where the pink walls match

the rosy tint of my view

of you, leaning forward

from your pillowed rattan chair,

beige as the pastries we share

to indulge in the sweetness

of pastry scents filling the air

between us, the mood pink

and soft and pure like you

with those three packets

of sugar you always stir

into your lattes, welcomingly

warm like your laughter,

carried by the breeze as it floats

through the open windows,

gently welcomed by our lungs.
