Coffee

I have tried mine black,
with 1, 2, and skim
and in diabetically iced confections
artfully swirled.

Vietnamese-
Cool, condensed heaven.
 and Turkish,
Dark silty froth
in hot tin.

I like my coffee
in China teacups,
with gilt scalloping
and just enough roses.

Where my book rests,
I will find
Vanilla cream and
Sun on the table.

Good morning.
