Sudden Death - a poetry challenge / myLot

October 27, 2016 2:56pm CST

Today’s words are: fall, turn, change, breath, balance. @Jessicalynnt and I decided to give it a go as we are in a turnabout season apposed to the Northern parts. I might not fall when life proves change, I might not fall when my breath turns slow, I might not fall when I loose all balance I might just fall behind my valance! Today I had coffee with a friend and when the waiter presented the "illy" coffee he said to us "Life is too short to drink bad coffee - enjoy" Spot on - nothing like good coffee, good friends its the Pinnacle of LIFE!

Illy is a coffee brand from my native country, Italy. My Mom buys this coffee since I was a little kid.

Like the poem. You remind me of when my friend said to me "life is to short to worry about who will còok a chicken." Two friends were wanting to cook chicken for a church event and things got heated..
