All kinds
All sizes
All shapes
All stubbly and adorable
In early morning wake
Before they shave
If I could only just have coffee
With just one really nice one
And watch the sun rise up
And chat about the brilliance on the water.

I like the way that the water catches the rays just so. . . like when it splashes and creates that rainbow effect. . .

welcome. . . I think that you'll find a lot of us wish for that. . . please, take a look around. . .

Wow! Welcome!

I have to admit, I'd stayed away because I thought this might be a nagative thing about men...I'm so glad I came in! It's wonderful and I know just how you feel. A lovely dream to consider; a wonderful way to start a day!
(yes, I mean to leave it 'nag'ative, heh heh heh)

Thank you for such a warm acceptance. I was encouraged to post this by my friend Regina.
I don't have much to offer, as I can barely type. I've been reading you guys for a while. But my typing was so bad I was too shy to reply. I have been practicing for weeks, so I will try to let you all know I love your beautiful words. Not too late to learn. Thank you!

Sven, that's what I'm talking about!

I was thinking this poem could have easily been titled "Women". Would have to change the beard part to makeup or something...James

I'm so tickled by your reply James. I'm reading that way now, and it is so cute. Just like you.

I'm trying really hard Marge. You have made it seem so easy. Love your work!

A very wonderful first post!. And she says she can't write. Now I just have to get her to get her own computer, as she and I have been working on this at my house over coffee and my shoulder. Now she knows why the phone is busy when she tries to call. Much applause for her on this little ditty! She makes my heart smile!

Sincerely,
Regina

I was excepting to see a small bit of gender bashing, glad to see you found one of the true breed of men the kind that are sensitive and warm. Ava, really enjoyed the poem.

Welcome!! Very nicely done..and I do look forward to reading more of your efforts. As for the poem..I very nice!!

Imagery captured in the few words carries the reader into the picture, letting us see the different types of men and finally a hot cup of coffee shared as water's reflections ( and perhaps others) are shared... I enjoyed!

It seems I am late in welcoming you and telling you what a simply delicate poem this is. It makes me wish for such a wonderful thing.

I hope you enjoy it around here.
