Brunching by the Seine in the Sun
I’m in Heaven

brunching alfresco
on my own
in the sun
beside the Seine
…how I wish…
a silky-smooth latte
like crème brûlée
cupped in my hands
duo-espresso shots
pure bliss
on my taste buds
…now I dream…
sun glints diamonds
through Parisian glass
rainbows shimmy
pastel colours
hope, peace and luck
‘round a fountain
spires in the yonder
pierce virginal blue
…another place…another time
I remember…
a fig and pear fruit loaf sandwich
roast turkey breast
creamy brie
and cranberry
lightly toasted
on a pretty floral plate
before me
