Murmurs

Murmurs in the steamy
decadence of a coffee house
Startling hissing of
an espresso machine
Books and wooden floors
and murmurs
Murmurs in the corner
of the amber haze
Aromas, laughter and
learning
Sipping coffee and
savoring melting chocolate
and murmurs

Murmurs in the
quiet evening
On an ocean front
A multitude of miles and
more
Away, from you
And thinking
Quiet thoughts and
more murmurs
Relaxed in the
aroma flavored reflections
Thinking of you
When last we were together
Murmurs gently
caressing my longing
Murmurs and memories
of you
