Coffee?

by George Hoerner

"Coffee?" "Yes"

and on

to search for the

infinitesimal instant

when two minds

meet to find

(not a
picked apart
word filled
static game
fearful of
nothingness,
but)

an intensity of

life where

thoughts of words

might fit

if one were wont

to put them there

but when

in the eternity

of touching souls

words lose

their letters

only to find

their meaning

in the real

participation

of two crying out

in the wonder

of having found

each other

even if only

for this moment

Hi George, Good one. Besides just stirring the coffee, seems like something else is stirring in the air. Excitemnet, maybe a little bit of love. :)

George I love the way your mind works as well as how this poem works to gather in the sheaves of my attention.
