On a Thursday Afternoon
Fresh coffee brewing behind the counter
Classic jazz floating above the room
Book in bag and order in mind
I’m prepared to enjoy a Thursday afternoon
Order is placed and I wait at my favorite table
Already engaged in my new summer read
I leave that new world for a moment
To retrieve my latte
The one I’ve been waiting for all morning
Difficult as it may be
I push all future tasks away
Know that all will get done in due time
To enjoy this gift of a day is my prerogative
Before the sun dictates its ending
So, mind, slow down, take rest
For personal time is a priority
Enjoy the world around you
While you’re still on it
Do unto others but
Remember to do unto yourself
For you will need to refill your cup
Before you pour out blessings on others
