with you

0 posted 2002-01-01 12:51 PM





Early morning rise
hot steaming brew
Tries desperately to warm out
These thoughts of you

Hazy remembrance
Of last night’s dream
Soft and sweet
Like sugar and cream

Sipping slowly
Savoring each drop
Hoping to make
These thoughts of you stop

Guess I’ll need more
Of this strong Java brew
To wake away
These thoughts of you

With sweet thoughts like this Susan, I'd be tempted to put away the coffee and just savour the memories a little longer. Beautifully written ... I enjoyed the whole concept you captured in this piece, just lovely!

Best wishes and Happy New Year to you!

(smiles) Sooooooooo beautiful, sweet friend, I know just how you feel, every night I dream of my love, I think of her hours after I get up, and just want to go back to bed and dream of her throughout the day! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is sooooooooo lovely! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Susan, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Reminds me of the line in a Stones song...'just can't seem to drink ya off my mind'.  Though, don't think they were talking about coffee!

This is so beautiful, Susan, there is a peace about it and I think many of us cherish that early morning time, I know that I do.  When I arise, I relish the quiet and the moment just before the sun comes up?  Oh, God, you can't match it.  Enjoyed this.

Hey Sue!  Happy New Year and what a lovely write!  Enjoyed this and know what you mean.  Don't you just hate it when you are having a really good dream, and you start to wake up at the best part....so you try to go back to sleep really quick and get back into it where you left off?  
Oh...sorry...I started to ramble, which I do when I get excited....great write!
Hugs sweetie!

*~ Wishing everyone a New Year filled with Peace & Love ~*

*giggling* not me......if I am having such sweet dreams I just want to stay in them as long as I can. What a wonderful poem. I love it. Hope the Java works. **hugs**

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

Susan,
your writing as of late has been wonderfully fantastic! your writing has always struck a chord with me and hit close to home, but lately girl you have been outdoing yourself and this piece here is a perfect example of what I'm talking about! Take care hon! Best wishes for the new year.

Beautifully done, SEA~.  I can't do what you can...if I tried it would come out horrible.

Something like hypodermically hooking myself up to the pot!!  See, I told you!  Horrible.  It's a wrong thing!

Seriously, though, really great write.  Your work is always a pleasure to read.

got an extra cup?-- lovely as usual SEA--

...and where do you find all these beautiful paintings?

There is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar.

Susan - Forget the sugar and cream, you need a little whiskey in that coffee to help you forget.   Nice write.

Now you just know what I am going to say right? LOL - sure hope you didn't get his name tattooed on you?  Oh I just couldn't resist it!  It is that little inside of me!   This was lovely in its complete presentation Susan.

Susan,
Such sweet memories of you. Wonderful.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
