Sitting in silence, watching steam rise from my coffee, my mind wanders. I consider life and the universe. I marvel at the idea of other worlds. Are there alternate realities? Maybe time travel is possible.
I take a sip, breaking my train of thought. A sweet memory from childhood dances through my brain. I can almost hear the sounds of the ocean, the memory is so vivid. I wonder what lies deep in the abyss of the sea? Consider the possibility of mysteries waiting to be discovered.
As I’m finishing my coffee, I think of love. Instantly, all of the faces of my loved ones flash through my mind. I smile, and let the moment of simple pleasure linger. Life, in its vast possibilities, just doesn’t get any better than the feeling of love.
Coffee does that!

I believe that time travel has to be real but also think that is reliving our memories is a form of it (:

Possibly in the future, time travel is actually possible. There’s even possibilities of life on other planets in the universe. I mean, earth is just a tiny dot in this universe.

Appreciate the ying and Yang this poem gives me: the simple pleasures of a cup of coffee or tea and the vastness of the love of family! π

This piece of work forced the reader to think. It’s giving peace but also it’s making mind restless. We start questioning ourselves and start imagining stuff. A very beautiful work.

Calm and peaceful!!
I certainly believe in a different universe, just like this but very different. I mean, how is it possible that god has created only 1 planet that has life??
The universe is so huge and in that our earth is like a tiny dot.
Also, I feel like there’s so much more to know in the ocean, I mean 80% has not been discovered. What wonders are hidden there is unknown to humans.
I love your work, it gives peace but also it does something to the brain, I cannot stop imagining stuff.
That’s the beauty of the writer, to force readers to imagine. I don’t know with what mood you wrote this in the past, but it’s magical amber. I respect you a lot for your work and creativity.

Yes, thatβs how I feel too. We canβt possibly be all alone in this vast unknown Universe. And the ocean is very curious indeed. I was writing about the practices of self care that I was implementing at the time, and taking time to let my mind wander and slow down during the day was a big one for me. I often do this with a cup of coffee. βοΈ Thank you for your comment and for taking the time to read.β€οΈβ¨
