"Stars and girls and bagels and coffee-spoons / Fall's rising suns and summer's setting moons"


Poem Artwork

So Late it Was Early

 

Up so late it was early so I went

To Starbucks to set a new precedent

And I was first a first for me at five

The girl and I surprised to be alive

In darkness as the only ones who were

 

She asked what I would have I said to her

"Surprise me" as she had already done

And as I had her too and it was fun

Some coffee so strong I needed a spoon

A big fluffy bagel under the moon

 

A few stars twinkled blue as they knew soon

The night would be over when we must all

Arise from summer dreams into the fall

Stars and girls and bagels and coffee-spoons

Fall's rising suns and summer's setting moons

I love the ambiance that you'ver created here, Stevie; can completely relate. When you get the right waitress, it's way beyond the coffee or whatever. Thank you. Love, peace and all sweet things to you. Regis

Thnx Steven for this wonderful poem. I said a lot to those of us who do stay up so late that we go out so early. I too stay pretty much by myself, a caterpillar afraid to come out and spread her wings. I feel all alone and so lonely at times, it makes me cry. My fiance keeps making excuses not to come to me, or offer for me to come to him. But this poem does speak of being our own person. Thnx brother for sharing. May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and be wit you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, stubborn to a fault, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little terrified sister, Barbie
