in the early
morning hours
i sit quietly
sip my coffee
let my eyelids droop
as I breathe in
the scent of coffee
lick the juice
of fresh fruit
from my lips
savour
the sun’s rays
as it warms my skin
I smile to myself
a perfect start
to my day…
J. Belle
it is the little things
100 beans
counted slowly
ground by hand
press & drip
froth & pour
a little heart
leaf or flower
it is warm
in my hands
as I pause…
the scent wafts
eyes close
corners of my mouth
curl upward
these are the things
that give me joy
in the moment
and hope
for the future.
J. Belle
why am I
forever waiting
for things
that exist
only inside
my mind
J. Belle
A special place
cradled lovingly
within my heart
no one else can see
Something
is always missing
that something
is you.
J. Belle
