coffee air woke me
I had been there
before<\/p>\n\n\n\n
the memories hung
full and rich
in the air<\/p>\n\n\n\n
each time before
Coalescing
as one<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shimmering
In the still-dark
morning<\/p>\n\n\n\n
as my feet
drew me
downstairs<\/p>\n\n\n\n
to pour a cup of hope
and take the first sip
of this new day<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
