Chipped Mug with Dogs

chipped mug with dogs

An amateur artist
who knows who
etched your white glaze in pinegreen
with English setters in a valley landscape
From you I sip mint tea heated in the microwave
you are not my favorite cup
not one I'd bring out for guests
but you do in a pinch
you do at night
when I'm tired but revved
and need warm milk to sedate me
If you have a spirit what does it think
are you sad
or content with simplicity
