Two Hours at a coffee shop table













Ten

A child with blue eyes and blonde curly hair
Daddy is counting her toes once again
Sat in her buggy she hasn't a care
always a surprise when the answer is ten

Pink

Blonde hair and ponytail, cats on her shoes
Pink glasses peeping out under her fringe.
Sticking her tongue out at her older brother
Her entire life has a sugar pink tinge.

Continuum

Sat in the chair with a coffee and crossword
Vacant expression upon wise old face.
Waiting while women do shopping and chatting.
Nine letter word meaning 'All time and space'

Ladies

Taking small bites out of their lemon cheesecakes
the ladies who lunch in their usual seats.
Taking small sips making small conversation.
Usual coffees and usual treats.
