"Got a minute for a cup of coffee?"
The familiar invitation means
the pleasure of my company
is requested
for more than 60 seconds.

"Of course," I say, as I mentally write
"Tomorrow" across my always lengthy TO DO list.

Coffee used to be:
regular or black
sugar's on the table.

But now, how to choose?
Dark roast, half caf, no caf, decaf,
latte, double latte,
tea, herbal, caffeine free, spiced, chai.

Finally seated,
steaming mugs in our hands,
live music
and table conversations
fade away.

We talk about
weather, the family,
theology, politics,
dreams and disappointments,
hopes and fears,
determination and new resolve.

We took a minute for coffee, we thought.
It had been a long day or week,
a little caffeine revived us.

We both knew or hoped
a cup of coffee with a friend
was the way to find ourselves,
to be renewed.

It's Second Sundays at Don's Place
Want a cup of coffee?
It only takes a minute
!
