Breakfast

brilliant fingers of color
stretched across a cloudless sunrise.

a morning dove races shadows
over orange tinted grass.

walking on gravel
to grab the paper.

exhaling a smile of fresh air,
she is on your mind.

remembering her lips
taste like cookies.

chocolate chip or peanut butter.
either. with creme and sugar
coffee.

pure, a vibrant center,
yellow, a daisy.

pink ribbons,
curled around wet stems.

an old wooden tray.
apple juice and cinnamon toast.

kisses on the cheek.
one on the lips.
