CPR
I’m sitting at a cafe drinking a tea called CPR
It’s nice-mild.
There are bright yellow flower buds floating around in the cloth.
Chamomile, peppermint, and rooibos.
Rooibos is my favorite.
I’m waiting here for no one but I still want to wait.
The wind chimes and dated music remind me of a time and place I never lived.
It is not bleak, but pleasantly solemn
I’m growing used to wind though I never cared for it much before
I’m beginning to feel it as weightless waves that serve to lift me rather than drown me.
I asked for honey in my tea which was unusual.
It doesn’t taste like homegrown honey.
Sugar is sweet but I can’t get the sweetness I yearn for. I guess I’ll just have to wait until spring.
