Exotic and inviting,
the Brooklyn cafe
serving tea and dreams...

...and my thoughts drift off back a year or so,
how quickly time fades...

Exotic and inviting,
that new cafe'where the
Japanese girl makes concoctions...

...and my heart drifts off across time and space
now some photos and a memory puff...

as steeping blueberry leaves shed vapors
scented with lime...

Exotic and inviting,
the storefront cafe' that the
artists run...

Where I stop in from time-to-time...

... wishing I was still in Kyoto buying a can of iced green tea from a sidewalk vending machine.

Exotic and inviting,
the cool cafe' with a few tables
perched on a tired curbside...

...recalling Kyoto mornings, sipping green tea
from a cold can as the Spring mist swirls across my cheeks
and the sun doesn't quite make it through the clouds.

this scene is very sensory...smells, taste, sights....can almost smell the perfume of the tea...this is very vivid in my mind.

(smiles) Oh Paul, this is lovely, sweet friend, I haven't yet been in the Eastern Hemisphere of this precious world but I think I'll be heading to Bangkok in the near future for sure, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Paul, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
