January 17 Stone on a Monday Morning

Scent of homemade applesauce cooking.
Coffee in my cup.
Ancient pencil in my hand.
My notebook open.
Overcast sunrise.

January 15: A River of Stones in the Fog

low resting fog stands
grey flecks on a table cloth
coffee warms my mouth

Cinnamon

I sprinkle cinnamon over ground 

coffee beans before I brew, 

like Cathy Bennett showed me, long ago. 

I wonder where she is now while my

heart and taste buds thank her.
