Topic: The Coffee Shop | |
---|---|
Sorry I disappeared again, but I have been very busy with my novel. I got inspired by this poem of a true life experience.
The Coffee Shop An old couple comes into the coffee shop As the bell of the door rings, They slowly canter over to a booth With a few of their favorite things. She carries a little book she reads In her soft fragile hand, He hair was glistening a snowy white Like the diamond, in her wedding band. The wrinkles of time were shown In the dimples of her face, As her husband, with his walking cane Guides her, to their favorite place. He reaches for a menu to order As his wife opens her book, He peers at her, with a loving smile With his hand in hers he took. No words had to be exchanged Of the love these two felt, For the desire in their hearts Would make an iceberg melt. As God whispers to His angels Tragedy befalls upon this love, A trip to the coffee shop one day Calls for the man above. His body lived, as long as it could He lived a good long life, God called upon him, to come home And left without his wife. Now, the old woman still comes in The coffee shop all alone, She tells the waitress, she misses him She's ready to go home. But little beknownst to her Her husband never left her side, He always came in with her In her heart, he will abide. He waits for her, to come home But he never got to say, How much he really loves her In every special way. So, with his voice speaking through me "Ma'am, everything is okay, Your husband loves you very much And will be waiting for you one day." "He says, to live your life as always, As though he was here, He'll never ever leave your side He'll always be near." I leave these words to you As spoken through to me, Your love will live forever Throughout eternity. |

He hair was glistening a snowy white Great Write, but did you mean His instead of He? Actually it was meant to be Her hair not his....so it could match the sentence like her diamond wedding band. Simple typo....but hey, one typo out of the whole poem isn't too bad. But it has been corrected in the original. |

Thanks for standing up for me sweetheart, but it was meant to be Her, and yes that whip is feeling good and it's working....I feel like my oldself again.
Thanks Jo, it feels good to be back to share what I enjoy doing. Thanks Sis...I appreciate the wonderful comment and sorry it made you cry. Yes, Dena has been a wonderful inspiration to me. Thanks Storm, I am glad you liked it. Thanks KC..I know what you mean about catching up. It's hard to get into the flow again, but once you find that niche, you start like you never lost it. |
