Upon the morn
The familiar fast began
A silence fell over break
Only to be broken by the soft spoken
Words of wisdom
Known only to age
...
"Good morning Honey"
...
Comfort is hard to find
And so too is value
Yet time has taught many a lesson
So that no reply seems worthy
To the the point that silence
As an alternative
Felt right
...
"Today I woke up to an angel
Her wings are frail
And her body too
Still nothing moves me
Like breakfast for two"
...
Such love is hard to find
To weather the ages takes a toll
Written in wrinkles
Seen in a wink
The knowing behind those beady eyes
As he orders his drink
...
"Honey I'll take half and half
For one is like me
While the other is her
The day is won
When mixed together"
...
Honey smiled
Moved by the sentiment
Asking for his order
Just seemed too impatient

'Let him speak'
She said to herself

'A few more
Words of wisdom
Could never hurt'
...
"Like a diamond she is my star
Let me tell you Honey
My wife is my heart
All the years have flown right by
But today feels just like the start"
.......................................
As a plate shattered
Everything resumed
Honey just looked around
Feeling quite confused
The man was gone
His words were not
They echoed across the room
