Hello Poetry Lovers
Welcome to the Love Cafe. My friend recently gave me this beautiful collection from poet Sally Crabtree
Isn’t it exquisite?! The most beautiful pamphlet. The poems inside are just as wonderful. I particularly love 10 p Skirt but I didn’t know how to illustrate it!
So I’ve chosen these two lovely pieces below. Ms Crabtree kindly gave me permission to publish these….
Crumbs
The good bits of the past
Are the tea and toast
In bed
&
The bad bits are the crumbs
That won’t go away,
However much you Sweep
Them aside.
They’re there, digging
in
Until the day the moment picks
up the sheet, shakes it out
And
gently lays it down, Saying
“There,
I’ve made your bed
Now lie in it.”
Coffee
One look from you and it’s Sugar
in my coffee
I melt.
Dissolving
desire
Spreading
To
Every part of me.
Sweetness reaches my lips.
Drink me.
Sally Crabtree
Weren’t they stunning, PL’s. Thank you, Sally. Love them. 
Thanks for tuning in, Poetry Lovers, we’ll be back with more poetry action real soon…..
