George sat down at a table for two
at the local coffee shop.
He is a heavy caffeine consumer,
seventy five years of energy
rushes with his blood
Cynthia is less of a coffee drinker.
George always buys her a small version
of what he is drinking.
He thinks she is beautiful.
One simple adjective
describing a very complex character
Thirty five
was the age he fell in love with
Cynthia
A metamorphosis
of a friendship
into more
They talk
and talk
talk some more
continue talking
about everthing
and nothing at all
all at once.
George has a daily routine:
Coffee with Cynthia,
drive home,
read the newspaper,
water the flowers,
clean the house,
and last
polish the urn above the mantel
containing the ashes
of Cynthia.
