spoon on spoon, spoon in glass jars,
spoon in favourite ceramic mug.
these clinks are music to the ears.
the hiss of a kettle,
happy gurgles of water that’s been freshly boiled.
the quiet rustle of grains of sugar
or a soft squidge of honey in.
long pour, coffee blooms,
meditative stirs as your watch the crystals dissolve.
close your eyes, breathe in slow,
for a moment, all is good.
