Blooming: a Rondel

There’s room to grow in times of sun if we’ll open our petals out. Instead we tend to reach when shrouds of weeds and thorns have overrun

as if our growth has just begun. Need we suffer to become stout? There’s room to grow in times of sun if we’ll open our petals out.

In times of peace our muses come. Oh, fair artist, you need not drought to let your fairest flowers sprout. Create from joy, it can be done. There’s room to grow in times of sun.

The Regulars

Hot days, cold bar stools, warm tea, and a blanket of burble wrapped around soft smiles and close company as the  day ebbs into  the loose, warm embrace of evening.

And, as the season slips through fall and leaves from  sleepy trees tumble into the air so, too, does laughter whirl about in here.

New faces come and go as the leaves, when ice and snow cover traces of their tumbling. But we, the regulars - artists, entrepreneurs,  students, poets - stand as trees in any season to practice the sacred rite of coffee shared and warm delight.

What is "commitment" but a concept retroactively assigned to a relationship long lived?
