*Coffeetop


The surface of

a cup of coffee is

the night sky

each bitty bubble

a creamy cluster

of stars

There is an

entire system

of stars

in my coffee cup!

I blow it around

the pressure of my breath

makes a

somewhat-black-hole

sending my bulbous stars

across a robust

and flavorful universe.


-Heidi Rose Krill

This is one of 25 poems I wrote for my second-quarter creative writing portfolio. I hope you like it.

*An original poem written while I was drinking coffee and watching **Julie&Julia

**A very good movie I do recommend to everyone. :)

cute poem!
we're also recommended to put written material in our portfolio. I only have one poem, though.

I'm a huuuuuuuge fan of Meryl & Amy. It's so great to finally have them act together!! I can't wait to watch it. (:
