She drinks her coffee black,
Still able to walk there and back,
One hand holds her cane
The other the saucer and cup
Her sleeve has a stain
Even if she doesn’t fill it up,
She sips her coffee black
And made a trail coming back.

Gloom

I asked her if she drank much coffee,
She responded with a smile, spills more than drinks.

Hah! As long as she keep drinking . . . er . . . spilling, she is still in the game.

That explains her cat's curious hypertension.

I really like this. To me, I liked that as I was reading my mind created the face and what I seen made me smile. So glad I read this tonight.
