Breakfast in Bed

Breakfast in Bed

The toast is done, and nice and brown
Best butter is all it needs,
A dollop of jam, her favorite kind
The one without the seeds
-
A glass of juice, freshly squeezed
Well, from a carton I do have to say,
The radio tuned to her favorite station
The perfect start to the day
-
Tea bags in the tea pot
I must be careful not to stew,
A splash of milk in her special cup
And there was her perfect brew
-
A special day, well they all are now
And any excuse will do,
To make my love, breakfast in bed
And just to say, β€œI love you”

WOW!!... this is a stunningly well crafted poem..... painting a poetic picture with brushstrokes so delicate that the imagery literally jumps off of the page and helps the reader to feel as though they were a part of that morning's kindness and beauty...... where Love is the ever-so-subtle expression whose delivery is something that is given without any thought of reciprocation in any way.... just simple, straightforward, Love of another person....... given with beautifully and romantically motivated charm!!.......ALL STARS & PINNED!!...... truly profound work here dear poet brother!!......LOVE & ROCKETS!!........T xo.Β Β

Thank you my friend, the simplicity and sentiment (see my reply to Cherie) made it slightly multi layered, and therefore interesting to write.
God blessΒ

My Dear John,

Every time he serves her "Breakfast In Bed"
He is attempting to butter her up
Hoping that after the dishes are cleared
She will fill his loving cup

Love,
Larry xxx

I’ve just seen this absolute gem, John. This is right up my street. I absolutely adore it. So much so I’ve pinned it. I love poetry about our daily lives. And what is more wonderful than breakfast in bed, made with so much love for a special someone. Brilliant! ???x
