Beyond the Bitter Brew

Frank000

Groaning, I rose as the east burned red

Peeking out at the world through a skull-throbbed head

Coffee steam swirls, a thought-filled shroud

The bitter brew mirrors the storm-laden cloud

Life's tangled threads, twist in its depths

Will this day bring burdens or long-awaited breaths?

 

Raindrops smash sorrow on the windowpane

Mirroring the ache that weighs on my brain

 

Suddenly, a flash of feathered delight!

A nest I spy, my heavy thoughts take flight!

 

With just one seed, a feathered soul

His joy complete, his heart made whole

I watch him soar, pondering life's quest

Do we need more than food and skies to be blessed...?
