Coffee, Tea, Or Me
--FreeBird 02
As the world comes to life
With a clear blue dawn
I reach out
For all I long to hold
But you are gone!
So stretching out
To start my day…
Warm feet
Cold wooden floor
…both come together to step forth.
With this I begin a rising up
...a longing for
A repeat of hearing
…what I heard the night before
'Coffee, tea, or me, my precious one?
Coffee is hot!
Tea is cold!
But you are just right
For what I am longing for! '
So in our window
Came the dim light moon
As things got brighter
Between me an you.
Now it is time for coffee
Later tea
But when the moon does rise
Then…
It will be time for you and me!
