A Poem for a Cup of Coffee

Your words turn into
a cup of coffee today
It warms your frozen fingers
through the white ceramic cup

It goes well with sugar
It goes well with milk
It goes well with cinnamon
and honey glittering gold

It goes well with scones
It goes well with chocolate
It goes well with bread with fresh butter
melting like the sea in sunset

It goes well with happiness
It goes well with sadness
It goes well with nameless affect
you don't know how to put in words

That's how simple poetry can be
and also how elaborate it can be
Your words will turn into
another cup of coffee today
