so i much enjoy
the littleness of things
the quiet fragrances
of a humble cup of tea
of a hot cup of café
because
the seconds
the minutes
of the light
of how a warm cup
heats the space left in my hand
to hold it
the warmth travels from the tea
or the cafe all the way to my nose
to my heart, the aromas or warm love
the respect of making my own drinks
my little Oms
every minute that i fret
every minute that i breath
and when i think of you
or when i not
or if smile, or get sad
or have a bit collapse
of mild or severe wrath
and middays
sun and a small
gift comes and go every day
and every morning
with the opportunity
to live again
and i run then
to
every midday fulfill
with the aroma
and preparation of
my spontaneous escape
a cup of sunny tea
or some tasty meal
and surely i delight
in this pretty view
the prettiest tea i owe!
an Earl Grey de la Creme
the little blue flowers
{if you are curious to click-look closer in the picture}
are blue mallow blossoms
they blink-blue and jump
among the black leaves of the bulk
tea is always good
a moist throat in case you talk...
and good for sun strucken foreheads
if i would know!
living in California and with this big
head of mine
and was on Sunday afternoon
after enjoyed lunch
too
a salmon kabob on pita bread
a $4.95 to go, big chunks of
grilled salmon + fixtures
with a Stockyard Oatmeal Stout
maybe wasn't the best match of beer
for the salmon, but it was the only one
in the fridge...
and the matter after all
was to enjoying the littleness of life
nothing too sophisticated
nor complex nor ambitious
just a ray of sun filtering thru
a glass of beer
or warming up my cheap
cup of pretty flowery tea

Hmmm... Definitely, your 'sweaters, scarfs and mittens factory' has made some effect on your writing skills... the way you knit prose with narration is awesome, something really subtle and almost confusing, that forces you to read again the last lines you've just read just to be sure what kind of lecture you are doing, very impressive... I began reading it as a poem, and when the rhythm got funky I noticed the poem became more of a descriptive regular post as those of yours...
Also, the italic font helped a lot on your chameleonesque post... Neat!
hola beto!
thank you for your nice words!
you are always encouraging of my random writing, heh heh, i truly appreciate it! also that you have the patience to read and try to figure it out... the words, to confess, just come out of my head and yeah they vary as my moods change these days!
san diego is foggy and colder so very much feel like in winter after all... i am sure in Vancouver there is more chance for sweater-wearing and firing chimneys, huh?
glad you always come around
and beto! i will try to post about this later but i found this little article on Wired online, that being you a designer and Gaby an industrial designer am sure you guys will find it interesting :)
