Coffees And Cakes

 

In the jargon

Of adult rhymes

There comes a time

When allegories

And metaphors

Encase the doors

And windows

Of that tiny

Coffee shop

With tables on

The sidewalk,

The aroma of

Leather and beans

Flirting over

Chinese slate floors

And a place

Near the corner

For the Mystical Lady

To share coffees and cakes.
