Coffee Shop Poetry

While I completely understand that not all of my poems are suited to all audiences, I have composed a list of pieces that a group of trusted friends, family, and readers have deemed appropriate for all readers and all walks of life. We have titled this collection "Coffee Shop Poetry" and now we feel like it is time to share this list with you - since this is the largest group of readers in concentration. The name for "Coffee Shop" came about because a coffee shop is a perfect place to meet someone, to fall in love with them (or yourself) and even to learn or share a new skill or perspective.

So in no particular order, I present you with Coffee Shop Poetry:
