Repertoire of Sighs
The smell of fresh ground coffee — ahh
a break between calls,
short conversations,
looking toward the coming day.
All deserve a sigh.
Too many sighs to share,
too many reasons to sigh.
Exasperated sighs
of errant child,
a drivers’ mistake
and mis-sent email.
The sigh finds relief.
And pleasure speaks;
joy in bed,
a friendly hug,
the team wins.
Multifaceted sighs abound.
Consider please,
your own repertoire of sighs.
Inspired by a barista.
