David Whalen - Ode to breakfast

David Whalen - Ode to breakfast

Breakfast is special to me br It’s a meal supremely suited to my solitary reflection br that has a more special, culinary cachet br Than are given more familial repasts br partaken throughout the day br br A certain translucency of one’s self br That only transpires in early morning time br Requiring only the key of good strong coffee br To chase off sleep and unlock the keep… of sunshine br br It’s a time when one’s mind br Has the real world forsaken br In lieu of a slew of great food br Like soft eggs, warm toast…and bacon br br The newly risen sun br A new day born again br A time when inspiration… unannounced, br Drops in, now and then br br Just an old man… in old shabby jammies br Feelin’ the warmth of the sun, so sublime br Sittin’ out on the porch steps, sippin’ morning coffee br Hummin’ tuneless songs..
