Coffee and Cats

Sixteen years of words
Filter around my mind
As coffee perks and cats purr...

You are my magical morning
With salty, peppery hair,
And a goatee that can make
Arthritic fingers dance across your face.

My moonlight-
The shadow that keeps me safe
As old age creeps upon our hardwood floors.

Our nights never dull
As long as we have general tso,
Reeses cups ..

And one more kiss goodnight.
