let the petals fall where they may
colorful demise.
the petals fall,
the flowers have had their day.
we think they're done, but they show us with a puzzlingly...
disconnected...
beauty.

outpouring of caffeinated inspiration
just enough beans
to start the day with
onesinglecupofcoffee!
do i treat it like i would if i were making
manycups?
like a single student, alone,
in a giant lecture hall?
these beans deserved attention
and focus...
tutoring, asitwere--to torture the metaphor.
the single cup they would make
must be the intent
fromstarttofinish...
the one cup, a goal,
a tribute to the life and posthumous journey these beans took
justtostartmyday.
suitably honored on a single cupped pedestal.
ground coarse, brewed gently,
pressed...
smooth midwest dairy compliments earthy sumatran notes.
upon consumption
their journey
sparks inspiration
and words that should--with the fines--get rinsed...
downthedrain
but you read them anyway.
and i
am buzzing into my day
grinning

tulips in the midnight moonlight
your day job
was to bring beauty, and
a sense of sunshine to the house
but now it's nearly midnight and i find you
doing
another job.
standing in the window bringing
moonlit vibes
eerie, but beautiful.
arching stems and curvy petals, striking a seductive stance
working your night job
and bringing beauty in ways i hadn't imagined...

first day of work across the river
stopped to take in the view on the stone arch as it becomes one of many possible routes to the new office.
