Breakfast

Breakfast, 1921, Fernand Leger
Wind whistles,
rain taps its rhythm on window pane,
hearth fire crackles,
radiates its warming glow.

Early morning coffee-scented,
croissant smile
lipsticked strawberry jam,
me freshly squeezed in loving arms,
love being loved by you.

Anna :o]

With thanks to Tess at The Mag for the inspiration.

When the wind does whistle and the rain taps its rhythm on window pane,it's so enjoyable in hot weather.

The most lovely line here is:
"me freshly squeezed in loving arms, love being loved by you."
