Italia Cafe Moment

Italia Cafe Moment

A Poem by Abdul Batin Osman Bey
"

just a moment in a cafe with my wife

"

She sits across from me

looking up

glasses on the tip of her nose

disappointed

that she can’t buy a shiny dream


her eyes pale

her face drawn

she’s looking at that dream

just slightly out of reach


slight scent of coffee awakens

she’s brought out of her dream

with a baby smile

looks out the window at the rain


this is just a moment

it will soon pass

another dream will come

a new shiny dream will appear

Thank you Anne that means a lot
Magical piece for the every day moments, reality wrapped in dreams and illusions...I can say just, I like to be disappointed, if I`m with the man I love..
Wonderful structure.
